Run down room with awfully uncomfortable bed. The toilet was leaking badly, leaving a large unhygienic puddle on the floor. The staff was very rude and unconcerned about it. Did not clean it up nor washed the floor with a disinfectant. One had to trod on the dirty wet floor every time one had to go to the bathroom. Management should have at least refunded some money as I did not get the room I paid for and probably picked up some infection.
