I was very happy to be able to have my little dog with me. The property is bright, sunny and very clean. The little extras, sweet treats, tea and coffee were very welcome.The property manager was excellent, very good communication and extremely efficient in responding to my needs.The only downside is the lack of railing back and front.Thank you Sam and Gary
