"Multiple Issues"
Overall Score2.0/ 5
1. Only one elevator is in service but it wasn't working Sunday when we arrived and it stopped again on Monday and again on Tuesday morning. Undependable! 2. The entrance road to/from the back parking lot is very rough, needs repair. 3. Drains in the bathroom sink and tub are exceedingly slow.
