Staff was somewhat knowledgeable; during the storm, we were told that the stairwell was the safety plan/place which didn’t seem right since it shared exterior wall. Then there was toothpaste left around the sink from previous tenants. Coffee was okay. Fridge was not conveniently placed. It was okay stay
