The rooms were very clean and there was plenty of room. There are a lot of stairs to get up to the rooms. One flight outside and one inside. The TV in the main room worked, but the one in the other bedroom did not and was ready to fall off the wall. It was nice the manager stays onsite and is there to help, if you need. Great value for the money!! Walking distance to everything
