"Originally arrived and checked in. The room I was given was a dirty room. I had to walk all the way way with all my things with all three my kids. Then when I get to the second room my kids turn on the tv and it has no signal. The room was clean but the bathroom was not. There was pubic hair and pee on the floor near the sink. I did call the front about the tv. The lady said that she had no clue how to fix it and that if I wanted to move rooms again. "
