I stayed in a one-bedroom apartment. The bed was like a rock and needed to have an extra padding put on to make it remotely sleepable. I had more and better sleep on the couch. The shower was impossible to get in to as the door would not open far enough for me to be able to just step in, but I had to squeeze between the shower door the bathroom sink. the door and sink were cold, this made the experience even more unpleasant, and it was the most ridiculous set up and one I have never seen in a bathroom in the world. If they made the door swing in rather than swing out it would have made an enormous difference. the staff need to stay in these rooms to understand the need for change. the staff overall were very helpful.
