Bad Liked: Nothing Disliked: The shower water went into the room and was blamed that that has never happened before. I was made to clean up the water. They said it was my responsibility to clean up the water. I was accused of leaving the shower on all night. The water went from my room to 3 other rooms and they were mad at me. There was blood on the sheets and a cup of coffee left in the microwave and no smoke detector in the other room we rented. The maid was smoking meth and pot on the premises with children in the next door room. I will NEVER come back there.
