Lexical Error "\u007f" (127)

After running my code through a css validator, it gave me the following message: 

.heavenly, .diamond-peak, .homewood Lexical error at line 205, column 15. 
Encountered: "\u007f" (127), after : "" ; }

Can you tell me what this error means and how I can fix it?

Thanks!

.arrow {
  width: 50px;
  margin-top: 120px;
}

/* Floated Columns ------------------ */

.resorts,
.tips {
  width: 46.5%;
}

.tips {
  float: left;
}

.resorts {
  float: right;
}

.heavenly, 
.diamond-peak, 
.homewood {
  margin: 2.5%;
  width: 28.3333%;
  float: left;
}

Hi Elise,

You have an invisible character after this line:

float: left;

Delete it and you should be fine. Let me know if that works.

It worked! :) Thank you for your response.

Do you know where that invisible character came from?

Awesome. No, I have no idea. I have experienced the same error before and I solved it this way though.
