Cozy 3 bedroom 2nd floor apartment.

Occasionally when I am in Bristol visiting my daughters, I utilize this apartment. Therefore, some of the lower dresser drawers have some of our personal clothing. There is plenty of dresser and closet space available. Additionally, since we use this place often, there are personal toiletries in the bathroom. Again, this airbnb acts as my home when I'm visiting family. There are some family photos on the wall. So, if family photos on the wall bother you, this may not be the best place for you
