We had a mixed experience with this stay: Pros: - Very clean rental with many amenities provided. The kitchen was very well stocked. The appliances were modern and functioned well. - Very responsive and helpful host - We appreciated the little extras like wine and coffee provided - Good security. Cons: - Not nearly as private as we expected. The rental is actually adjacent to 5-6 other rentals, and there was constantly noisy traffic rumbling past our rental, sometimes late at night or early. The rental was close to a busy road with lots of noise. - There was no option to sit or explore the outside area, which would have been nice given the location. - The place was spotlessly clean, but the air fresheners were overpowering and gave our daughter a headache. We unplugged them all. - The rental felt a bit strange, like a condo in the middle of nowhere. Didn't have much personality. Considering the cost, we expected more privacy and outdoor space. Would not stay here again.
