dated room stained carpet

the staff seemed friendly enough, and free parking was available at the hotel.

my room was quite dated, and i dont think it got a proper cleaning before i arrived. the bathroom fixtures had rust, and the carpet looked stained. the noise from the street kept me awake most of the night, so i didn't get any rest.
