Everything exceeded expectations. Wonderful beds, luxurious bedding and extra everything. closet and drawer space. Soft bath towels (and lots of them), toiletries. Kitchen was fully supplied with anything you'd need to prepare and cook a meal or enjoy takeout with plenty of plates, glassware, silverware. We only stayed for one...
