Not a family place
This is not place where you can stay with family. There is no microwave, no fridge. A single cup wasn’t available to drink water. I have requested a late check out but someone was knocking the door at 11.27 AM

Be mindful to check in time for the lockbox code. I have missed this and an email the night before as well as an Expedia message wasn't answered. Also, no answer on the phone during the day and no return call but finally we managed at 4 pm to get hold of somebody whilst ready escalating the issue to Expedia.

I was unable the access the room until 8:30 pm. I was tired and hungry and upset because I had booked it and paid in full more than a month beforehand. I did not receive the email with the access information. I eventually had to pay $20 to make a phone call that was unnecessary if the companies who already had my money had followed through with what they had committed to do..not impressed. I will post a negative review.

Pleasant 2 nights at iStay Cottages
We bookended our trip with stays at the iStay Cottages and we're very happy with our stays. We didn't receive our info ahead of time as expected for which cottage we were in & our code but calling the associated number addressed that issue. Outside of that, they were easy to access and exactly what we were looking for.

The cabins are extremely convenient if you need to catch an early flight. The place was quiet, the shared bathrooms extremely clean. Didn't get the opportunity to use the kitchen, but the space looked well equipped. The field of purple flowres behind the cabin, a definite bonus.

Check in was problematic, didn’t receive email with information and the phone number provided by the property to call with issues was not connected. An hour later (in the rain), after contacting Expedia, we were able to check in. Once checked in, the room was nice, modern and clean.
