10/10 Excellent

"The space was perfect for a one night stay but could definitely serve as a multiple night visit. Quite an efficient space, too. Everything you need. Parking was easy and close. The neighborhood can be a bit loud at night but not too bad and nothing the host can do about it. Very convenient location to all government locations."
