low water pressurebroken shower spray

The rooms were smaller than expected. it felt cramped even with just a few bags. the bathroom had some issues, the water pressure in the bidet was quite low. the shower spray was broken at first. They fixed it, but it was still an inconvenience. several electrical sockets didn't work, annoying.
