The bed was comfortable and the sheets were clean. The pillows were either nice and fluffy or hard as rocks. The condition of the curtains, faucets, medicine cabinents, and furniture all could do with a solid refresh.

Ice machine was out. Looks like it's been out for a while. The shower/tub valve wouldn't close all the way so half the water was wasted. Overall the property is OK.
