Overall it was good, but lacked basic things like small lamps for side tables. Wifi code didn’t work and office was closed early so couldn’t get a solution. The shower was in desperate need of replacing along with the lino in bathroom….would make it hygienic. Bed was like a rock. Everything else was really clean.
