The kid's bedrooms were amazing and they enjoyed them very much. The adult bedrooms were very comfortable and private. The kitchen was very nice and we were able to find all the utensils and dishware we wanted. The location is great. Walking within the neighborhood was easy and very enjoyable. This is a great place to stay with extended family.
