I can’t rate this property as we did not stay there. They switched us property because of plumbing issues. For the property that we did stay at, the futon couch was broken and all bended. We put the mattress on the floor so we could use it as a bed. One of the bedrooms was way to tall for a rental property. There was 2 boxsprings and a mattress. The only seating there was, were barstools and bar height flimsy chairs. We had to be in all different rooms when we were at the Condo. The location was good.
