bumpy dirt track uncomfortable mattress

The bumpy dirt track leading to this place. It was a real adventure especially after rain. I needed my phone light walking back at night. It wasn't fun. Stains and holes decorated the towels. The mattress was thin and uncomfortable. I had to ask for fresh towels and more toilet paper after four nights. Seriously
