Liked: Cleanliness
The pictures and description of the property were accurate. The host and hostess tried to think of everything and be very accommodating. I did not give it 5 stars as their was an ant issue in the kitchen and the primary bathroom. Also, we were not able to control the thermostat. We were told it was tricky and they could control it remotely, and they did. We could see it go up during the day, and down at night. Also, the information provided for the stay did not include instruction on how to lock the door when leaving. I reached out to the host, and what he told me did not work. My son eventually figured it out.
