Cute little house tucked away in a nice neighborhood

This little efficiency was great for my needs while visiting in Abilene. Everything worked, and the bathroom was fine. I did some limited food preparation without any problems. Comfortable furniture and cute table to put books or papers on. I would stay there again.
