Adequate But With Issues

awkward toilet paper holder strong musty smell

I had a few frustrations . The bathroom really needs an update. The toilet paper holder was in a very awkward spot. It made sitting on the toilet uncomfortable. Plus, there was a strange smell in the hallway, like must or mold. The overall quality seemed a bit lacking!!!
