Everything was great so I don't want this to sour the experience. We were there for 3 days and nights and we like to prepare meals at home so we aren't always having to spend excessive cash on eating out. With that said, the kitchen did not lend itself to preparing much in the way of a home cooked meal. However it is more than adequate for preparing snacks and heating in the microwave. Take your own salt and spices, condiments, etc. It is a great space and I highly recommend staying at Edward's place. Also, there is not a washer and dryer, which we were hoping for. However, there is a laundry service available through the hotel.
