The toilet in the room was broken. Pillows and sheets were dirty. Ended up going to the Walmart down the road and buying sheets and pillows. The window didn’t have a lock. Just a piece of wood jammed in the window. Lots of noise.

It was convenient location. Several car alarms were going off and didn’t sleep much. The room didn’t have a refrigerator nor a microwave. Could have been due to some modeling?
