Hi Jacklyn, we appreciate you sharing your thoughts about your stay, as guest comfort and safety are top priorities for us. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
-The bed height has worked well for many guests, but we understand everyone has different preferences.
-There are motion-sensor lights outside, and more will be added to improve visibility at night.
-The unit is stocked with three rolls of paper towels, but we’re happy to provide additional dish towels if guests request them during their stay.
Thank you for sharing your review. Your feedback assists us in understanding our guests' perspectives and improving wherever possible.
I needed a quiet, safe place to stay while I had some business in Belgrade. This was such a sweet little spot, with great cove access, amd the bedroom had a great view of the water. This is a small, simple place that was well-appointed and absolutely spotless- a perfect hideaway!
