This little studio worked out perfectly for us in that my Mom lived a few blocks away so it gave us a place to retreat to at night, keeping the family from getting on each others nerves ;) The host was very hospitable and communicative. My only critique is for there to be white towels in the bathroom which can be cleaned with bleach vs the red ones there which did not give me complete comfort that they were clean. But on a final positive, it was great that there were separate beach towels to use since we forgot those. Thank you for a very memorable vacation!
