Summary: The sofa bed was the worst I’ve ever seen! Nails that were spiking out and the mattress was terrible and so uncomfortable even my kids couldn’t sleep well on it. The floors were so dirty our feet were black from walking around. The door needed to be fixed and had a metal piece hanging off at the bottom that was really dangerous. The air conditioner sucks too! Never shuts off, unless it trips the power, which happened so many times and it’s is so loud! Walls are paper thin as well and all you can hear is a loud humming of ACS at night. For such a cute place on the outside the rooms don’t match. The bathroom was gross as well as the vanity area. Really should make some updates in the bathrooms.
