Dirty hotel

This was one of the dirtiest hotels I’ve stayed in. When we got to our room it had a weird smell and there was crumbs of food all over the table and floors. We also had no towels and no bedding for the pull out bed. When we went to talk to the front desk the person working seemed extremely annoyed we were even there so we got our towels and bedding and decided to just leave it alone. It was also 10p and we were tired from traveling. We were in town for a music festival so our options to find a new hotel weren’t likely. The air conditioning didn’t work well and when I opened the panel ants came out. Thankfully there were no bedbugs but I wouldn’t have been surprised to find them. Pieces of the shower wall were chipped off and you could see the drywall backing. My husband tried to use a treadmill one morning and the belt was off, making it unsafe to use.
