Traveled with partner
I appreciated the microwave, washer/dryer, and refrigerator. The master bedroom mattress was only suitable for one person as when my husband and I both were in the bed, gravity forced us to the center.

Very cozy and well appointed.

We were in the area to visit our grand daughter who was graduating from the University of Maryland. It was great to find a nice homey property so close to get house in Mechanicsville.
