The suite had a separate bedroom and a full kitchen including plates, glasses, cups, silverware, toaster, microwave, cooking utensils, and even knives and serving utensils. Quite a nice surprise. I go to Nelson every Summer and have stayed in many of the local accommodations. This one is definitely one of my faves now.
