My stay was very comfortable. It was very quiet at night. The beds were wonderful. Nice big bathroom kitchen was adequate air conditioner was a floor model made a little bit of noise a little bit hard to hear the TV but other than that everything worked out great.

Location is great. Near grocery stores, gas stations, and even a Costco. This is a house divided into 3 separate units, not a whole house. At one point all three had renters but it was quiet. It has dishes, pots and pans..etc, everything needed to cook or reheat food. Very comfortable beds. My brother even said it was like sleeping on a cloud. Big bathroom with most amenities Laundry facilities are clean and even have detergent. I'm looking forward to staying here again!

6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property itself was spacious and clean. The wifi wasn’t working initially but it did come back online mid day the day after we arrived. Also, it was hard to do work with the renovation noises from above. Also somebody had parked in the spot we were told was ours one of the nights. Other than these inconveniences, the space was comfortable and convenient. Check in was smooth. We did not receive any info about check out.

8/10 Good

Liked: Cleanliness, communication
2 things I'd improve for the next guest: Make sure the only heat source is working.. Pilot light was out and remote did nothing and buy better toilet paper... it was AWFUL, comically so. Even my co-worker mentioned how bad it was and HOW Much they had to use... I don't think you're saving any money. BUT I will say I adored the mattress topper, so comfy and thank god it kept me warm. (Just TIP: The beds are really tall. Im 4' 11" and I I couldn't get into the one room so I had to use the other and try and jump in- DEF not ADA. MAYBE LET PEOPLE KNOW THIS IS NOT AN ADA PROPERTY my friend)
