Jan 3, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy What a perfect place to call home for a few days. Named quite appropriately the Happy Hive. Everything was exactly as we wanted and everything we needed was available and more. Central and a short trip to every place we visited.
