This is a very stylish place, but some of the appliances are very high-tech, making them difficult to operate if you're not a "techie." We looked for instruction manuals in the area where the host said they were, but they were not there. It was late at night when we arrived and we didn't want to bother the host (thus, we couldn't watch TV), but I imagine the host would have helped us if we had called during the day. It was nice to have a washer and dryer in the unit, as well as coffee.
