Additional comments::	The knob to turn the water on in the shower stall was so tightly turned off that Vicki had trouble turning it on. The tiles in the shower stall were comfortable to stand on. It is obvious that this shower room has been renovated sometime in the not too distant past. Shower water temperature warmed significantly whenever someone flushed a toilet. There had been a working door restrictor on the door at one time, but part of it had been removed. The amount of toilet paper in the dispenser was almost completely zero on both rolls.
