The reviews were accurate! Mark and Marcello were excellent hosts. We felt like they genuinely cared that our needs were met. They went above and beyond. There was an excellently organized laundry room that we were able to use, and the front porch really makes you feel like a part of the neighborhood. Coffee shops and a market were totally walkable, and there was a grocery store in close driving distance. I took our three young kids to the beach, and it was so convenient. Lots of playgrounds nearby as well.
