charming stay right in the action

clean room quiet ambiance bedroom windows appointed kitchen
i liked how clean it all was. despite being on a busy street, it was very quiet. the bedroom windows opened, it cooled the room down a bit. the kitchen was well appointed, it had a fridge freezer and a microwave, so i liked that.
the door lock needed the code put in a few times before the door opened. it was a bit intermittent.
