@Karen457 In all your posts here on the forum about your unacceptable housing situations, you have come across as a reasonable and polite person, not someone entitled, not someone who rants and is demanding, but just expect things to be working, safe, and comfortable. I'm quite sure you are capable of writing an honest review without sounding like a complainer who no one would want to host.
As for the barking dogs, the loud music, the ants- you're in Mexico, dear. It sort of comes with the territory. There may be areas that are reasonably quiet, or very quiet (I hope this next one you've been waiting for is), but I'd say it's the exception, rather than the norm. And I've seen cockroaches running around in the desert in Baja, nowhere near anywhere that there is food. They are endemic to the area, and doesn't mean a place is dirty. So don't get freaked out if you see some.
The hot water- I also haven't used my hot water tank since May. I have one of those big water storage tanks on the roof that the water comes out of and it's plenty hot enough from baking in the sun all day until towards the end of this month, at which time I light the water heater again. But I know it can get chilly in Baja in the evenings. For dishes- can you not heat a kettle of water on the stove for the dishes?
I'm not at all saying it's acceptable not to provide hot water for guests (I get few, if any, guests here in the summer months, but if they wanted hot water, I'd definitely light the hot water boiler for them) just suggesting a work around.
And yes, it's gross that the dishes had dried food stuck to them when you moved in. But that isn't a result of no hot water, it's just lax dishwashing. They need a better cleaner.
