comfortable apartmentsash windowmouse problem
The apartment was comfortable and all the facilities functioned as expected. The area has convenient access to necessities and feels safe..
The room had a heat issue on a very hot day. I opened the sash window for air, but then I saw a mouse on the balcony, so I closed it. The bed lacked a mattress protector, and the headboard was falling apart.
