dirty carpets squeaky floorboards

the location was fine i guess. a kebab shop across the road, a real culinary dream.

The state of the place was questionable! the carpets looked like they hadn't seen a vacuum in ages. the squeaky floorboards announced my every move. I reminded me of i was tiptoeing through a horror movie, and a shared bathroom on a different floor? not ideal, especially in the middle of the night.
