5/5 Excellent

"We enjoyed our stay. Very clean. The bed was comfortable. Plenty of storage. Two things I would change. The toilet was thin and plastic. It moved around a lot. Kitchen was great. Utensil’s, plates, cups, glasses and cooking pans supplied. Great tv. We used our Netflix account. The Sofa Bed was okay to sit . Not sleep. Omg it hurt so bad. Honestly. I would throw it out. Mattress was thin and you could feel the metal underneath. There is no way anyone could sleep on it. Other than that it was a wonderful stay. Reasonable charge. Need wine or small market items just a block away. We will most definitely rebook this place. Again, had a great stay!"
