broken light no housekeeping

the broken bedside light wasn't fixed from last year. the kettle only works when you wiggle it, that's not acceptable, i expect better maintenance. also, there was no housekeeping .

Acceptable Stay with Some Disappointing Aspects

hot room dusty cobwebs

The owner was friendly.

I stayed in a room hot with virtually no air even with the window open. It was like a sauna. I noticed it was dirty behind the bed with old cans and rubbish. There were also dusty cobwebs hanging.
