The home felt very lived in. We were told not to use the kitchen sink which was a negative, and the number of security cameras inside the residence living spaces were very uncomfortable.

Would stay again
We stayed at this song to attend our son’s graduation. Although we did not cook in the home, there are plenty of supplies if needed. Beds were comfortable and the house was clean. Short drive to the University.
