This is the second time staying at the Terrace. It is perfect for short term stays. It has a small kitchenette which is helpful for in-home meals. The space was slightly cold at first, but after the first evening it finally got warmer. Doors are sliding glass doors, so that may be part of the cold.

6/10 Good

They property is well situated but in need of a lot of minor repairs. The heaters did not work properly and or were insufficient. The electric blanket only fit on about 1.2 of the bed. The lights and TV remote needed to be maintained or replaced. The staff was very nice but the unit was cold and uncomfortable.
