The property was amazing, lots of onsite activities (swimming pool, ping pong table, pool table, BBQ etc.). All were fun and fully functional. We had no issues with the property at all. Close to lots of stores and restaurants. House was clean and felt like home away from home. Very family friendly space, the kids loved it and want to go back. Check in was easy and so was check out.
