Themed and bedding were very comfortable. We didn’t like the heater up on the wall. It was a chilly night? So needed to run the heater. The heater came on and blew down on your faces in bed. You would get too hot while it was running, then would get chilly before it came on again . If it could cycle. On for shorter times, more frequently, it might help to maintain a more even temperature.
