Positive: A beautiful location. Very clean. Baseboard heat that was very quiet. Nice TV. Negative: Shower head not connected to water supply in a very small bathroom. Poorly designed outside stairs that are difficult to climb. Room was not large enough to accommodate two Queen sized beds, resulting in a jumble of other furnishings. Very poor internet service - inoperable in the evening.
