Observações

Estava tudo limpinho, bastantes utensilios de cozinha, tudo em ótimo estado. Recomenda se : limpeza de exaustor, pois não puxa nada, máquina de lavar loiça com falta de sal e abrilhantador, TV um pouco com má sintonização. Não é crítica, mas sim observações na qual se resolvem facilmente. Para voltar. Gostamos muito.
