There were nightlights along the hallways, and flashlights in the nightstand drawers to help keep us safe at night. The kitchen was well appointed, the bathrooms were luxurious, the beds well all very comfortable, and my boys loved the living room adjustable lounging chairs. The outdoor spaces are also very well set up to enjoy all the seasons. ##### Martha G.
