Most properties you stay at you give you the sense the owners are trying to impress, wanting you to come back or tell others about the amazing time you had; unfortunately this was not the case with "The Muse", really felt like they were doing the absolute minimum to meet the property requirements. I would not recommend.The only bright spot which is why I added the second star was the responsiveness and kindness of the person from Follo who met us at check in.
