The heater seemed to blow at only 1 temperature - it didn't seem to change when I turned it up or down. However, the temperature it blew at was comfortable.
The room was a little, well, shabby. There was a large drywall repair by the hangars that hadn't been textured. Paint was applied to the raw drywall. The furniture was also a little run down. But I can live with those sort of things and it didn't bother me much.
