Pros (+) Location can't be beat. It was a full moon; I should have done some 5 AM sand boarding at the dunes but didn't want to go solo.
Cons (-) Would have appreciated a better screen door and then I would have slept with the door open instead of operating the AC unit which which my bed was right next to. My room had the smell of bleach.
