Remodeled with hardwood looking flooring product, and if orange is the new black, lumber liquidators wood floor is the new cheap. Still, very much more sanitary. Which is good.
Unfortunately it’s also a bare slab floor, as most dwellings in the third world and California are. Which means the floor is about 35 degrees now. The occupancy is quite low, and we will see why in a moment, so the rooms are not heated when vacant. After check in, handled through a bullet proof window now, unlike previous stays we could enjoy the smell of curry from the back, plan on running the heat on high for hours, but since it won’t touch the floor, it will only be too hot to sleep and too cold to stand.
No problem, a nice hot shower will do the trick. Yes, it certainly might have. The first room, had half a bath’s worth of hot water and then never more. The second room, shower only so we effectively got moved to a lesser room to fix the problem, had warm water at best. The tile was beautiful, but of course cold. Like my ex wife. And similarly I would have gone sooner if there wasn’t money involved.
This has been our budget priced gem for over a decade. A quick name change and it’s become a place we won’t return, despite the same owners.
