small tv shower issue
the location was quite quiet and suited my needs for a relaxing trip.
i encountered a few issues (which was disappointing). the tv was small and kept losing signal so i couldn't watch anything. the shower water had a funny smell to it and the shower head had a crack, resulting in a loss of pressure.
