Basic Stay With a Couple Issues

clean roomfaulty hairdryersmall room
The room was certainly clean upon my arrival, I will give them that.
The hairdryer in my room didn't work at all, annoying when I needed to rush. I also noticed the shower's hot water seemed to fluctuate, and I do mean it got too hot sometimes. My room felt small, too, cramped even.
