Closed off spaces were just as @Bruce Woodruff said, a relic of times when you either had servants that worked in industrial spaces and methods that were a lot more crude than today, or when people were poor and could only afford to decorate out a single room as a "proper" place to entertain guests.

IOW, the amenities, decor and location need to be very comparable.

I also used Floor and Decor which is very affordable.

Thanks James we plan to go with white or something that matches our theme and decor.  

Brand new construction with traditional boveda ceilings, professionally designed and decorated, 100% turnkey for second home or Airbnb. 25 minute walk to the historic center and in gated community. $200,000 USDDid you sell this already? 

No one seemed to care how it looked, how it was laid out, how it was decorated, if the pool was appealing, etc... 

I would focus on decor and amenities that also take advantage of the location.  

More activities (games, outdoor décor and games - games also end up with missing pieces very often).

Not only will appliances and mechanicals need updating, but linens, furniture and decorations also need updates over time.

My primary points with investors or operators are:- Design and Decor..updated aesthetic appeal can go a long way.
