Old property.
The room was very small for 2 beds. peeling wall paper, missing drawer knobs, old shower caulking and etc. The property is old. Underground garage is leaky with dirty green water puddles. Heater is working, but the heat escapes instantly.

Apparently, the boiler was out but no one bothered to call us or let us know ahead of time of the situation. We arrived to a space heater in the room but were freezing. Had to wear a parka into the bathroom. The second night we requested a second space heater but it was still not quite enough. We asked for a more definitive solution and they moved us to their sister motel which had heating. The customer service after the fact was great, but wished they had apprised us of the situation beforehand and offered us the move sooner as it was freezing!!!
