Water pressure in bathroom shower was awful. After you have the temperature you want, it turnsto scalding. Then you readjust it and within seconds its freezing. Size of bathroom...the door is millimetersfrom touchingthe toilet. You can't go i. And shutthedoor, its too small, and you can't sit with the door open. TERRIBLE DESIGN. No ice machine on 2nd floor. Eggs for breakfast looked like jello eggs. My dog, refused to eat the eggs. Bacon was overcooked, not burnt, but super-duper crispy. Sausage was meh. No good non-carb options or even healthy options. They do let my service dog stay, but not alot of potty areas for the dogs.
