The stay was as expected. We did end up needing more towels, but that was no fault of the owners. We really enjoyed our time.

Our group of 6 enjoyed our overnight stay. It was a quick drive to the Ford Center for a concert. There was a little hiccup with the key code, but the owner was quick to respond and fix the problem.
