The bathrooms were nicely remodeled. The pantry probably had 50 worth of organic spices, but only provided one extra roll of toilet paper per bathroom and was missing a hair dryer. The host didn't offer to replace it, but offered to reimburse us if we bought one, when a drive to Walmart is probably 30 minutes one way. ##### Tae K. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025
