No cell service. The bathroom didn’t have a shelf to help hold stuff. But other than that it was a lovely stay.

Showing some signs of age but pretty good place for the price. I let management know the shower pressure was weak. I would stay here again but not with someone I want to impress if you know what I mean.

We had a cottage which was really nice because it was like a separate little building. It's very close to the entry and be able to park in front. There's some maintenance issues like fixing some annoying plumbing and broken tile. Would be nice to have another table that's close to the refrigerator and microwave for prep. So could use some carpets for floors because it's a little bit cold on the wood floors and a the night light. It was a very nice large room

My stay here was great ! Got there after check in time but they sent me a txt with all my information. I got the 2 bedroom cottage . It was outdated but worth it for the location and price . Parks were very close , about ten mins to point lobos . The kitchen however had no knives. Would highly recommend and will be staying here again .
