They are in the process of completely remodeling every room. The furniture and fixtures, especially in the bath room, have fresh modern flair. The shower is amazing, and the TV is large. The manager with very friendly and helpful. I asked about the hot tub, and he said it would be finished in the spring. I will definitely stay here again!
