The unit was very clean and comfortable. The particular one we stayed in had a balcony but due to the weather we didn't go out on it; the view was just "so so" - it just looked into the woods and also down the hill we could see a maintenance building. The kitchen was stocked and although we didn't cook, we felt we could have easily prepared meals.
