She showed me my room and the facilities. The Bathroom facilities are shared, at the end of a long hall; the hall night light and my room's bedside lights didn't work. There was a modern single cup coffee maker; however there were no small cups to fit the machine . There are no restaurants or grocery stores nearby. The Kitchen facilities and tables were good. ##### John Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Nadine May 25, 2025 The property is very quiet and the house was ok but had to crank up the heating.
