“While the owner's pleasantness is a plus, substantial updates are needed. Though some rooms suggest renovations with new paint and bedding, reality can differ, with dated carpets and stained walls. Its location offers little beyond the adjacent gas station, and guests might find themselves alone during power outages.”
