Worst stay I’ve had in a long time. Toilet didn’t flush properly, shower pipes made a LOUD high pitched squeal, HVAC was off upon check in so the room was 80*, and the ONE bathroom outlet was wonky and wouldn’t work properly

I was the only one in my family who ate the boiled eggs, and I had diarrhea all day. In the parking lot, the sidewall of my tire was punctured by a nail, and I spent $485 to replace it with a new tire. When I arrived, the tire pressure warning light was not on. After parking overnight, the tire pressure light came on when I was about to leave, so I checked the tire and found the nail.
