Aug 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location Disliked: Communication #### Far from luxury Only 2 pillows. Only 2 bath towels and one shared hand towel. No closet of any kind. The only place to hang clothes was a single mount 3-swivel hook on a wall. Entirely inadequate. No response of any kind from the host asking for more pillows and a coat rack. ##### Jim M.
