Very easy process. Condo was clean. Convenient location, but still drove to eat, etc. because it is on quite the hill. However, it makes for amazing river views.

Perfect for a girl’s getaway

This property was the perfect space for my friend and I! It was clean and bed was comfortable. The only 2 complaints I had was the remote to the tv didn’t work and I had to figure out how to reprogram it; the listing also had a hot tub and there was no hot tub on the property. This should be removed from the listing. Great place!
