Decent hotel that needs some love

The room was quiet and comfortable. The hotel overall was shabby and not very well maintained. The carpets in the breakfast area needed a good cleaning, there was trash around the front door and finishes generally were peeling or chipped. Our room was clean overall, but there was stuck on paper on the grab bar in the bath.
