This is an excellently hosted property. We had a personal situation arise during our stay; the host was available and went above and beyond at every turn. It is mostly a younger crowd and parking is hit or miss though the garage is adjacent and available. The property itself is modern and very clean. The layout was perfect for our family of three.

We were happy with our choice to stay at a condo vs hotel. This condo was perfect. Pictures look just like it does in person. Beds were extremely comfortable, I slept so well!Excellent communication with the host. Pool and lobby/ lounge area were very nice, just wish we would have had time to use it. Would definitely stay here again.
