Not up to standard.

I was disappointed with my stay at this Holiday Inn Express in Independence. It was pretty dirty. The only way I was able to tolerate my stay was. I had cleaning supplies with me. I cleaned out the tub of soap scum and the nastiness of the bottom of other feet. The tub was not white. It was gray. The corners still had existing dust. The windowsills were as though they hadn’t been cleaned in quite a long time.
