Coffee was cold even when they got a new pot out. I believe coffee was made too early.

Tranquil Abode
The room (and house) was clean and the bed was very comfortable. There is shared access to a fully equipped kitchen, living room, and bathroom by 3 guest rooms. A very quiet house and neighbourhood. Wonderful place to stay at an unbeatable price.
