The house was very nice, bedroom was pretty small

The house was very nice, but bedroom was very small. We had trouble with tv and getting stations we wanted to watch. Was misleading, said 55 & over community and no pets. Well got there and found out just this rental was over 55 and no pets, lots of people with pets and quite a few residents were under 55. Pool was great, very warm and clean, great club house for activities. All in all good.
