Great Value with Clean remodeled...

Liked: Room looked like new with bright carpets, hand soap foam, Xfinity & remote, mini-freezer/refrigerator and more
Disliked: Two problems, only cable channel I wanted to see, TNT, was having repeated technical problems. The body gel dispense in the bath/shower only had a few drops of gel.
