Every essential provided-tp,pt,soap,laundry/dishwasher detergent,etc. AC not adequate for family room. Dryer did not work. Front entrance dangerous—2 slabs of slate and 1’ rise to porch. Difficult for older and young persons. Although surfaces were clean, house needs a deep clean and parts need a reno.
