The Kitchen functioned quite well with recent clean appliances. Plenty of cooking tools and plates and cutlery were available. A Washer/Dryer was available in the garage. Garage access was only from a door connected to the Kitchen. Access to the backyard was through a door located in the garage, which had a secure bolt system.One bedroom had a twin bed and decor appropriate for a child to feel welcome.Two bedrooms had queen beds and cute decorative touches. One of those had a nice desk. The Wifi worked well. Overall it was a comfortable place to stay.
