What are your general comments?

The facilities were old, the office staff was unorganized. There were four of us and we each had separate tours but at the same time, that could have been done better. The office staff did not organize students to take us to lunch so we had to wait for a student while they were frantically calling around trying to find one. Overall, I though the whole thing was unorganized and unplanned.
