While it worked okay for us, there were many things that needed fixing. The fridge stopped working, and we eventually got it working again. The owner said they would let their maintenance people know, but they never followed up with us. On one side of the neighborhood there was a beautiful park. The other direction, there were several homes for sale and one that was completely run down. It didn’t feel like a place I wanted my kids to be running around at. We weren’t there much as we were visiting family, which we were glad about. Beds were comfortable though!
