Overall itwas a plesant stay however the home needs some updates, example the shower had tape holding the floor tub together which looked really bad, also the flooring through out the house was separating Also the walls inside the home needs to be painted.. Like I said the home was nice just looked like it needed some attention from whoever is managing the property.
