Quarters are pretty tiny. Bathroom doesn't have room for a sink. But one has everything that one needs except an ice cube tray. I substituted muffin cups. Everything in working order and neat and clean. Very close to downtown Sitka. I am uncertain I would try to squeeze two people. The single bed looks that there is a trundle underneath but I did not try to see how that works. ##### Timothy M.
