Overall, good stay plenty off room for our family. Would be nice if the front door had keyless entry. As the lockbox is located at the garage door, which is on the side of the home. Or supply a code to open the gararge door. Communication with the property manger Luis was excellent. He was attentive to our needs and most accommodating. We would stay here again base on the size and location.

Good # of bedroom, but very firm pillows.Kitchen lacking good cookware and knives. Courtyard was very nice for a family corn hole tournament!
