underwhelming stay

carpet stains outside noise

the location was pretty decent as far as being close to stuff goes.

The room i was assigned was a bit of a letdown. It felt pretty cramped. the cleanliness was questionable, with some questionable stains on the carpet. also, the noise from outside made it hard to sleep at night.
