Great place but just a fluke of a room

None of the plugs in the bathroom worked so we couldn’t use a hairdryer or any thing that needs to be charged. Also the sink did not drain well it took forever to drain but to be fair they did offer us to move rooms and we decline not to it was already too much of a hassle to move everything to another room.
