Positive…. Cute and modern! Not so positive…. Flooring very unleveled, not so desirable neighborhood or outside area. Definitely could have been cleaner. Obvious sign that carpet had not be vacuumed since last visitors. Found a pillow and blanket behind bedroom door.

Family weekend

We were in town for the National FFA convention; we had an easy time getting back and forth to downtown. It was a great space for three adults. The kitchen and bathrooms were set up very nicely and we appreciated the fan for each bedroom.
