10/10 Excellent
"I was very impressed by this hidden gem, literally hidden behind a farm property. Very large room clean and organized, and a comfy king bed. A microwave would be handy. The bathroom condition which can be a deal breaker for me, was spotless, with lots of room. Only issue was that big barn door on the bathroom very nice and trendy but... It's heavy and can be difficult to open without a proper handle on the inside, cause the little recessed plate that is supposed to work as a handle doesn't cut it. Lots of parking available."
