Liked: Cleanliness
I do like the cleanliness , but they need to fixed the bathroom door it didn’t close . And latch at the front door was broken. They need to fixed it for the safety of the guest.Although the owner of the property telling us it’s safety once it’s inside . But still I’m a little bit nervous especially now a days . A lot of crime happening. It’s better to be safe than sorry at the end .
