Fantastic New House
Everything was as advertised. We had a party of 6 and an infant for 5 nights. The kitchen was fully stocked with all cooking items needed and nice GE Monogram appliances. The primary bedroom was upstairs with 2 guest bedrooms in the basement. We had one maintenance issue that was minor but addressed promptly. The only other issue I had was the primary bed was very uncomfortable. I realize this is a personal preference but it did affect my sleep. Everything else was great and we would definitely stay here again.
