Dave's reviews

Dave asked lots of questions to make sure we got what we needed. He found the perfect place for us at the price point we were hoping for. I must say it was very nice to have someone else do the hunting for the perfect place instead of doing it myself. I will utilize Dave’s expertise again.

Dave was very helpful and patient in helping me book my room. He was also very reassuring as well and that was appreciated during the stressful time trying to figure out where to go. I look forward to working with him again in the future!
