Great Location, nice place.

We really enjoyed this place. It was clean, near wonderful things such as Crane Point and Sombrero Beach. The master suite bathroom and closet were large and nicely appointed. Overall, a great place to stay. The owner was communicative and helpful. Do note that one bedroom is downstairs and through the basement. It is not as nice as the others and hard to get to. It can only be reached from outside.
