The backyard patio was dirty when we got there. The house is a corner house so it was noisy at times because of a near by hospital so we would hear sirens and loud car engines pretty often. The house also had roaches in the dining room and kitchen which was unsettling considering we had young children. We were also bit by mosquitos in the yard a few times. Overall we enjoyed the pool & the house wasn’t too far from Fort Lauderdale Beach which was convenient.
