No iron, no ironing board, no blow dryer, no coffee maker, bed sheets were stained. Bathroom and room floors were gross. Baseboards had all kinds of dirt around them. BEDS WERE EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE and slid all over the bottom frame. Lights didn’t work on the lamp or the top headboard. Other guest were smoking weed in there rooms and when we had the vent on, it would come in our bathroom and room.
