Manager & housekeeping was pleasant. My only complaint is that there was no room on 1st floor available. No elevator. Bed was very comfortable but pillows were flat. Microwave and mini refrigerator worked well.

I liked the property, its different. However, the wifi needs some love. Used my hot spot because the wifi suffers from low performance.
