Quietly met expectations.

Clean room, clean bathroom, clean carpets and bed. Quiet. AC/Heater worked great and was quiet. What more is wanted? Okay, the front door needs some weather stripping as cold air was coming through the sides and under the door. But no big deal since the heater worked so well.

The room was very nice with cool rain shower head. The only problem was the odor. The room smelled like a cleaner to treat pet smells. It didn't bother my husband but it did me.

When I arrived there was no ironing board or iron or hair dryer and I texted them and let them know I had a wedding next day and they brought it to me early. Which worked out perfect.
