There was no one to ask questions or to call, all of our windows were left open, the front door curtain was broken so I had to lean a bag on it to have any privacy and our bed was so uncomfortable it was hard to sleep.

Thin walls

The two double bed cottage is actually a duplex with very thin walls. My family had to listen to the men next door having s*x all night. Not fun.
