Great Space for Two Couples

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: You can't beat the location, and the space is great for two couples, since it has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The apartment was quite clean, and the living area, bedrooms, and bathrooms are good-sized. The kitchen is a little tight, but that didn't really impact us as we didn't cook anything during our stay. I don't really have any complaints. The apartment was great for our priorties (location, size, and cleanliness).
