Although the layout of this condo is different than what we typically like, it was very clean, had a place for us all to gather, and a really big, nice table for eating. We like to cook, so we enjoy a big kitchen that opens to the living area, and although this one did not have that option, the kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils. It was a bit cramped, particularly when the dishwasher was open, so if you like to spread out to cook, it is a bit of a challenge!
