Except. Wish we had known before coming that we were expected to take our shoes off indoors as the floors were cold and slippery , area rugs were dangerous as they were not nonskid . Lack of a broom and mop meant a week worth of crumbs etc were on the floors.water was scalding and we did not have instructions to turn down. Entry keypad was too low for people in their 70âs especially in the dark. The bushes at the parking space made it impossible to get in or out of that side of the car, need cut back. Overall could do with better labelling and instructions on how things worked.
