Perfect Rental, However never received any instructions on how to get into the unit. I had to research to try to find a phone number to contact someone therefore we were late getting into the unit. The unit had a broken blind, would not go up, therefore the unit was very dark, that took two phone calls to try to get someone out there to fix that. Icemaker did not work and toilet seat was broken when they came out to fix the blind. We informed them about the icemaker, but that never got fixed. I did not bother calling about the toilet seat, I didn’t want to spend all my time getting repairs done to the unit.However, the unit was great and I would rent there again.
