The bathroom window wouldn’t close all the way (a screen on the very top that lets in constant cold air). Big gab under the front door (more cold air). No sink in the bathroom to wash your hands or brush your teeth, it is in the kitchen area. The running water is yellow/brown in color. The TV stand was covered in dust. The bed frame is on rolls and has no breaks (you basically roll all over the room). Finally we had a roach come across the room at bedtime. The food in the restaurant was way overcooked and overpriced :( The property is also not located in town, which the listing didn’t really specify. Overall it was super disappointing, after it looked so promising on Expedia.
