Very Good, but can be tough to be a safe driver at the same time

The app worked very well. The only issue I had with it is that it required you to drive very slowly so it was difficult to be a safe driver at times.

So glad you enjoyed the tour! Thanks for the feedback! Driving slowly on Bellevue is definitely harder in the off-season without traffic acting as a natural slowing factor — but we’ll do a little rearranging in the next update to make sure people are comfortable!

We do not advertise Belcourt access anywhere on our listing AND we already offered a refund. I’m surprised to find a 1-star review for something we have absolutely no control over.
