V.A. was very welcoming. The room was lovely, light and bright. Not shown in the picture was the stocked refrigerator, microwave, and hot pot, as well as all sorts of gluten free and vegan goodies. This means we didn't need to have to scrounge for snacks and breakfasts. The fresh fruit was wonderful. Shared bathroom was scrupulously clean, and the household pets were a trip ("get the ball"). House was full of interesting artwork.
