Honestly, it was just okay. Based on the previous reviews, I guess expected better. There was nobody hardly ever at the front desk, no coffee pot in the lobby area which would be nice considering the one in the room was very small. Plus, not sure when it was cleaned last. There was a place to wash ...

The room we had the shower rod was broken off the wall hanging down. So it was hard to get a shower without the water going everywhere. No soap . Other then that it was great. And I never had any contact with the host. That's why it was a low rating.

Location was fantastic! The bad: The cabana was a little worse for the wear than advertised. The room reeked of marijuana upon arrival which was very disappointing since this is a smoke free property. The host responded quickly when notified saying to air out the property and that it should work ...
