First impression, dirty dishes put away in cupboards, random persons belt left on kitchen chair, dental floss picks on bathroom floor, pull out couch not stripped from previous guests. Great location. Room had a great set up. Really disappointed in cleanliness of room. A lot of money spent and a disappointment.
