Lovely little place. Convenient. Whoever put it together has good aesthetics and craftsmanship. I wasn’t happy about not being able to get in the gate right away. And I didn’t like the insinuation that it was my fault at being unable to put in the correct code. Also, I am accustomed to having a hair dryer available, which the casita did not have. That needs to be corrected. Also, just an FYI that condensation on the window above the bed is causing mold.
