Not a great part of town

Only enough beds for 12 people. The futon doesn’t have sheets or pillows. The couch could sleep 2 on it. There was only 11 bath towels. No hooks in bathroom to hang towels on. One towel bar to far away from shower to get it without completely and soaking the tile floor and no extra towels to dry it up. Washer and dryer’s There are 2 of each only one 1 of each works and you have to turn on the gas to run the dryer it says to run both dryers at the same time but you can’t because the other one doesn’t work. The washer is loud sounds like an airplane about to take off or land. We didn’t feel comfortable leaving the dryer going when we left or went to bed because of it saying the gas needs to be turned off after. There is hardly dishes to use. Only 5 bowls 5 miss matched cups. And very few other things. We pre washed our dishes because several things we pulled out where dirty. The driveway gait and bar gait on back door are locked with combination locks the driveway lock is very hard operate. There are roosters and a dog next door It woke us up 4am each day. Listing says hot tub, jacuzzi tub pool table, and fireplace none are in it but I didn’t expect them. there is another apartment on the side of the house with a window into yard where cars are parked. It also shares the living room wall and you can hear people through It felt very strange and like it needed to be disclosed in the listing. The kitchen ceiling leaks. No bedside tables.
