A Little Smelly

I think this hotel has seen better days. The team is doing well and trying, but the musty smells, old furnishings, moldy caulking in the shower and overall vibe was just a little... sad.

The room was cold and musty at first. I figured out how to turn on the heat which helped with temperature but the musty smell remained. I asked for another room and the next room also had a musty smell and the floor had a big stain. The breakfast was nice and the service staff were kind. It's close to the airport.
