Evening glory was very clean, the recliner sofa and chair were very comfortable, the view from the living room windows where fantastic, it was very spacious and our two little dogs loved it, the only down fall was the double bed, it was so uncomfortable it was like laying on boards, so my husband slept on the recliner and I went in a single bed with my granddaughter, apart from that it was really really nice and we would love to go back, but they do need a new double bed
