"We used the condo for a family trip. It is not that far from the hustle and bustle of downtown, we had a nice walk. The condo is in a quiet area so very peaceful. It was in great condition and the details were clear with what we had to do when we got there and when we left. The bubbling river was relaxing and the view of the mountains was enjoyable as we sat on the patio. The condo had everything we needed to make our stay feel like home."
