The host communicates well! The location is just a few steps away from the water which is beautiful! Although there was construction on the bridge that takes you in to the city and it was challenging (and longer) driving in to the city, this location was close enough for us. Even though the house has five beds, there are three private bedrooms w/ beds. The other two are in the living room and one is a pull out on the floor. I'm glad my other two friends were not able to come because that would have been a little uncomfortable. Otherwise, this was a great choice!!
