8/10 Good
"The room was clean and the host was nice and helped us with our questions. We understand that this room was new to being rented out and I want to list items that should be added to the room. The room had one small garbage can in the bathroom with only one bag. There should be at least one larger can in the kitchen area and replacement bags should be provided. There were no dish towels and two wash cloths total in the unit. There was no frying pan but I realized later that there was one in the unemptied dishwasher. There was no dishwasher detergent. We were disappointed to learn there was no AC . It was unusually warm and we were told that only happens a couple weeks out of the year. It was too hot to sleep well so we did buy a fan that helped. Also the door did not have a screen and there were only two small windows we could leave open. The door had no shade and the parking lot has security lights that shined brightly into the room. We also purchased a couple chairs we could put on the patio as well as use in the room. The room has two small bar stools to sit on other than the beds. If these issues are addressed and it is not so warm outside, this room would be a good place to stay. We liked the area and really enjoyed the bike trail."
