the staff was like a warm embrace, always ready with a helping hand. the neighborhood feels so safe and cute, it is a treasure to find such peace. i loved the modern bathroom, it had a good shower pressure and the water felt so hot and soothing.
the sleeper couch wasnt the most comfortable, it felt a little too firm. there weren't many utensils, i wished for a few more in our kitchen. the noise from the street carried into the room, it disturbed my peaceful nights.
