Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Everything was fine as advertised. We did the train ride and everything was great, just needed a bit more light in the bathroom and kitchen. And recommendations on the shower to not be so tall maybe with handrails for the older ones.
