Not again

We have traveled all of our lives and we talked about it and decided this was the third worst hotel we've ever stayed in. The employees took their smoke breaks right outside our room. It was a nonsmoking room but still smelled like cigarette smoke. Overall the hotel is really beat up. The only part of the hotel that was kept up well was the pool
