a mixed experience with some drawbacks

friendly ownersmall roomnon-functioning television
the owner seemed friendly enough, i will give them that.
Our room was far too small. Barely space to move around. the television didn't work, and despite reporting it, nothing was done . the lack of a working television was annoying and impacted our evenings significantly.
