"We couldn’t have picked a more perfect place. It fit our group perfectly. Plenty of space to gather work and cook. 4 bathrooms made it easy for 4 ladies to get ready in the morning. The showers were good pressure and plenty of hot water, nice tile as well. The master bathroom is fabulous with a large modern soaking tub. The location is perfect too. Great neighborhood for a walk or run. Very safe. So close to the mall where we had several events to attend at Pinstripes, very good and Philz...
