Create a class with a method

Need help with this I am sure it's something simple I messed up on

Thanks

method.py 
class Store(object):
    open = 9
    close = 5

def hours(self):
    return hours = ("We're open from {} to {}.".format(open, close))

Hi there, your method indentation is wrong. Also remember to use "self" keyword when referencing class attributes

class Store(object):
    open = 9
    close = 5

    def hours(self):
        return "We're open from {} to {}.".format(self.open, self.close)
