Disliked: Cleanliness
We got woken up at 4:20am to a random women knocking at our door and when my boyfriend asked what she wanted through the window because we were definitely not opening the door she walked away and started knocking at another room. We also noticed a car was following her so it was definitely scary and sketchy. We called the office and they said they were calling the police which I’m glad they did but definitely was concerning what that lady intentions were. Regarding the room it needed to be cleaned better, the refrigerator needed to be cleaned as well and it had a bad smell and didn’t seem to work.
