Disliked: Cleanliness
It was ok
When we got there, there was parking spot blocked off, construction equipment all over the gounds, and a notice on the door about roofing going on that started 2 weeks prior to us showing up. The owner had no idea this was going on. So we had them starting work every morning at 7am. The one day the bounced their extention latter off our window at 630am. Just happy it didnt shatter the window. So nothing Zen about this den this time
