Pros +

  • Elegance and location
  • the location was IDEAL!
  • Phenomenal upgrade

Cons -

  • Not a thing
  • the room was moldy and musty smelling!
  • Room was 100 degrees even with heat off. It's on a old double boiler system. I advise opening window slightly for fresh air

Room was 100 degrees even with heat off. It's on a old double boiler system. I advise opening window slightly for fresh air
