There is no hot tub. We also received no check out list. We noticed 50-100 ants on the floor some dead, some alive. When we stripped the sheets, we noticed several dead ants in the bed. Owner didn’t seem to be understanding of our situation. However, these two things add up to be unacceptable, as we would not have booked if it didn’t have a hot tub. This was a big selling point for us. And for the ants, I don’t believe anyone would want dead ants in their bed. ##### Lacey C.
