Short stay
Overall the stay was good. Some bad things: smelly dirty dishes in dishwasher, old coffee left in coffee pot, excessive dog poop in the mulch in back yard. Would be nice to have a little grass in back area instead of all mulch. For being on main road it was pretty quiet. Would use this location again if available.
