Excellent Accommodations
Thank you Andrea for another excellent stay for one of my clients. I love working with you. You're the best.
Perfect long-term rental. Convenient location, close to the park and restaurants, the Market Place in walking distance. Our only issue was the light. It was so dark in the apartment we would not know what time of day it was and whether it was sunny or cloudy outside. It was the best appointed kitchen I have ever experienced in a VRBO so I was able to cook. Had a wonderful stay!
