adequate stay, some issues noted
small bathroommissing refrigerator
The bathroom felt small, and it had a huge workspace adjacent to it. this arrangement was strange. I thought the bathroom needed more space. there was no safe in the room. i also missed having a refrigerator for personal use, it's an important feature.
