The place was nice and clean. We did have some issues with the internet during our stay, though I assume this isn’t typical. I was also a bit affected by the noise from people walking in the main house above, which was noticeable—especially when trying to sleep past 8 a.m. I wouldn’t recommend communicating with the host through the VRBO app, as I didn’t receive any responses.
