The Good, Bad and Ugly

The path was uneven rock that made it impossible to maneuver. Water filters needed replacing and no ice upon arrival. Cheapest Paper towels and toilet paper. Backyard was not welcoming and didn't look swept or ready for guest. Everything clean inside and I liked the bed but others said the mattress was too firm. Master did not have its own bathroom. I expected more for the price point.
