"Communication between me and the property manager was good. The place was in great shape tho the place needed a little ambience outside as it’s surrounded by weeds and none of the beautiful flowering plants so enjoyed in Carmel. The bed was a little sunken in the middle but linens and towels were clean and comfortable. Would have been nice to have a fan in the bedroom for air circulation. Overall a B-"
