What Makes
KENMORE HALL
Different?
Recent guests, old guests, even those who
have stopped with us only for a day or two,
have frequently asked:
"Just what is it that makes living at Kenmore
Hall different?"
The answer is hard to express in words. It
has more to do with the spirit of the place-
just as some homes are cheerful and inspir-
ing and others are not.
Perhaps the answer is to be found in the
fact that the hospitality of Kenmore Hall is
unaffected, sincere and friendly-that is why
it is truly
"A Home Away From Home"
