Everything was pretty good. Only inconvenience was having a room for two with only one chair at the desk. Tv was outdated and couldn't connect to apps. Minor things in the grand scheme of life

A great location, close to the town. Quiet and clean. Just what we needed in the city, and the basic kitchen was a bonus.
