Friendly and Comfortable
The apartment was lovely. The beds were 2 twin beds pushed together which was not comfortable for a couple. Minimal kitchen cooking pots, plates were too large to fit in microwave. Be prepared to not have weekly cleaning, but nothing supplied to do own cleaning. One roll of toilet paper to share between 2 toilets. One towel supplied in each bathroom. Free clothes washer and dryer. Swimming pool clean and lovely. Parlor was comfortable.
Be prepared to go shopping for many essentials stuffs, i.e. toilet paper, sponges, garbage bags, salt and pepper, etc.
