What you pay for
The unit was as described and mostly clean. We encountered an ant problem in one bedroom that took us from sleep one night until we sorted it out. Wish there had been a second toilet downstairs. Exit to balcony upstairs was a little precarious as the door opened up over the stairway. View from the patio was lovely and probably our favorite part. Local food places were awesome.
