Negative: sethis has not been a good experience, with booking.com or the Nook representative. I was offered a full refund and have yet to receive it. The agent who handles my reservation says that they have approved a full refund and that it is up to you now. I rented the entire house, couldn't get address or info till the day before my family arrived and then after many conversations with the agent, i was told that i only had the upper duplex which was totally unacceptable due to family taking entire house. Our plans were crushed and had to settle for plan b which cost me over $900 to reserve. I expect my full refund as offered and promised. Holly Griffin 309-303-4814 hollyberry71822@aol.com, i wait to hear from you. Thank you very much! e above

Air conditioner made weird noise. And tv in the living room did not turn on. Washer and dryer were in a separate unit. Other than that place is decent to stay.
