Loud & Dirty Suite

When we arrived around 1pm just to tell the receptionist we had a reservation for two nights, he told us our room hasn't been cleaned yet. It was fine since it wasn't the check-in time yet. However, when we got to the room after 4pm, the room definitely has not been cleaned. The fridge had little crumb-like stuff on the bottom half inside. I ended up using my own sanitizing wet wipes to clean the inside and the outside. The microwave also had stains on the side. The living room table in front of the couch was chipped off on the corner. The window in the bedroom was not clean. There were many stains on the bottom part. The window in the living room could not close. When we tried to turn on the lamp in the bedroom, it did not work. I checked to see if it was plugged in after I moved the lamp desk away from the wall. It was not plugged in. Of course, I plugged it in for it to work. The bathtub drainage didn't work unless we pulled out the drainage part. Another thing is, I felt itchy right after entering the room. There is banging from all sides of the walls, including the ceiling. Even the Best Western from Plus Bayside on Ash Street isn't this bad. It was not bad at all. Thia location also didn't have any stores closeby.

Unfortunately, the room wasnt as clean as I would expect. The tub had dirty streaks when we initially turned on the shower, when we got the room there was less than half a toilet paper roll and no extra??? Also the worst part is not noticing the bedding & sheets were stained until we were getting ready to leave. I would not be staying here again or recommending it.
