Be nice if they would change the towels instead of leaving dirty ones up. Also the ice vending area is sketchy as hell.

Dirty

The room was very dirty. The bedding was filthy and had to be changed, shower was grimy, and it was like the floor had never been swept. The service was fairly quick when new bedding was asked for.
