Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
Was really clean inside, but the outside could use a little attention. It was perfect for a work trip and very private and quiet. The interior was very clean and the shower is awesome! The neighborhood was a little ran down, so I can’t say I recommend this a vacation spot, but it served me well. The manager was on point and very helpful. I would stay there again as it was convenient to most everything.
