The host was welcoming the house was beautiful clean and modern. Very close to good eats as well as night life if that’s what you’re looking for. The reason for my four stars was because I stayed there with my elderly father in law and the walk way to get to our rental which was the back house was not really the safest walk way with the large rocks to walk on. I also was not found of having to street park like I mentioned I had

Glad you enjoyed the home, its location, and the nearby restaurants and nightlife. I appreciate you sharing your feedback about the walkway and street parking. The property does use street parking, and the path to the back house is shown in the listing, but it's helpful to know how it felt for your group. Your comments are appreciated, and hope to have the chance to host you again.
