Do Not Stay Here
First off the property had king size bed listed in the master bedroom. It is not a king sized bed. Second they have bed listed in the common area like the couch pulled out it did not pull out. Secondly the air was not working when we got there it was reading 82 degrees. I called the owner their solution was a window unit. One window unit to cool the entire apartment it never got under 78 degrees the whole time we were there. The dryer did not work, the refrigerator was leaking water inside it. We asked for compensation since we had been mislead by the posting of the propery and the air not working all they were willing to knock off was the cleaning fee which was 100 dollars. This guy is listed as a superhost not sure how. We were miserable the whole time and feel we were ripped off from the start he knew the dryer and the air conditioner was messed up before we got there. No one ever reached out to let us know before we got there to let us know.

Dance Comp weekend Getaway
Excellent location for us. Our daughter danced all weekend at the Thrasher-Horne Center and we loved how close it was. Great area. Super convenient. Everything within walking distance or close by. We enjoyed the pool on Saturday. Would have liked to had some paper towels but we bought a roll and left it. Toilet paper rose on the roll was cute. Refrigerator door not sealing well. You may want to check on that. Only other suggestion would be a mattress cover. Perfect for what we needed. We enjoyed our stay and would return.
