The room was great, the flapping builders plastic from the industrial storage in the EV charging bay that i planned to use was not. The work Ute's leaving at 4am and the alarm that went for 45mins shortly afterwards were little cherries on top.

Poorest area was the washing machine… free to use which is great, ...
