    Default An Impossible Sentence

    Hi, I would really appreciate help making this sentence grammatically correct:

    "The room has all the necessities: desks, chairs, dressers, beds, an attached walk-in closet and bathroom... well, perhaps a bit more than the necessities."

    It can be broken up into multiple sentences if it needs to be (obviously), but if at all possible I would like it to keep its flow.

    Thanks!

    Welcome to the forum, Firith.

    I think your sentence is fine with the changes I have suggested:

    Context is always important; labelling is rarely important.
