Mixed review

The house itself was clean but has some notable maintenance and upkeep issues. The upstairs bedroom is a bkistering oven in any kind of heat even with the cooling fan. We had an issue with the refrigerator CONSTANTLY beeping for our entire stay. Communication with the property owner was easy and very responsive, there just was no meaningful resolution to the issues.
