The room was dirty. My socks turned brown from walking around. There was debris on the floor that wasn't swept. I got jabbed by something on the floor. The room was old and smelled. The walls are not sound proofed and I could hear the person in the adjacent room snoring. To make matters worse the staff opened my room at 2am and tried to enter with a guest. I told them to leave. She apologized and said the other woman said this was her room. I did file a complaint with the front desk in the morning. They said to go through you for a refund.
