The room was smoking which was an accident on my behalf so thats part of the problem. I laid on the clean white sheets with clean wet hair and there was a yellow ring where my hair had wet i guess the mattress where the nicotine bled out. The whole room reeked of cigarette smoke. Which is ok, since i did the booking and didnt see that. But there where blood splatters and dirty hand prints on the doors and on the wall in the bathroom. The light switches where grimmy where they have not been wiped in awhile. The door handles where all sticky and grimy. The remote wouldn't work for the tv and we couldnt get anything to play. The door between the rooms had no seal so i could see the light from his tv all night and hear him very well.
