Nice but different

You have to rely 100% on the "care taker" to let you in AND out of the building. When you check in, they don't give you a key or a code. So EVERYTIME you want/need to enter OR leave. You have a call a phone number and the care taker will come downstairs to unlock/open the door. One time he was no lt there and it took me almost 45 minutes to get in. Other than that, the place was amazing. Exceptionally clean and I was pleasantly surprised to have a shower with hot water and good pressure.
