Very good

Host was very responsive and communication was great. Property is relatively new to vacation rental. We enjoyed our stay. Only uncomfortable drawback was the small shower. We are not large people but each of us struggled with lack of space. We have provided feedback to host and hope they will be able to update the shower in the future.
