I was hesitant to book this place because of cost and a few reviews that mentioned loud water pipes but I'm so glad I did! Yes, you can hear water running through the main pipes (especially in the upstairs bedroom) but the location, pool, and overall vibe of this place make it easy to overlook some noise. The pool was much more "happening" than we expected - perfect for bachelorette parties and people watching (maybe not so great for families on this particular weekend). Being able to exit our own back steps onto the street was also a perk (especially for Starbucks lovers). Great communication and overall fantastic stay!
