### 2/10 Terrible

#### Thomas M.

Jul 30, 2023

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy

#### Misleading photos

River is not swimmable. It is dried up from drought and overgrown with plants. Not recommended unless you just want somewhere boring to sleep in Johnson City.
