The apartment exactly as described inside and 6 minutes from where we needed to be. Owner was super responsive and friendly. Beds were comfortable. Water was hot. Everything was is excellent order. Small thing just to be thorough…. We thought this place was on the lake. To be fair, if you read the whole listing the owner actually describes the place as across the street from the lake. However the map location on the site shows it on the lake. And if you just look at the pics and the map in the listing you’ll think it was on the lake. Just a heads up if you’re in a rush like I was and don’t read the whole thing. Overall I would recommend a stay here.
