Not great

Tub filled up with water while showering. Toilet ran after use and gurgled, keeping us up and requiring us to adjust the handle so it stopped running. This happened all night. The stuffing in the chair was coming out because it was in disrepair. Our driver to the airport played the music so loud at 7am we couldn’t hear the person sitting next to us. When it was time to leave he spoke to us, and was really frustrated when we didn’t respond and slammed the door, but we truly couldn’t hear him because the music was so loud. He made us all feel uneasy while he mumbled and talked to himself after this initial interaction.
