Limited staff. The moment i started walking through the hallway on the 8th floor to the room, the floors were dirty and noticed storage doors by elevator was off the hinges. The moment i walked into the room, we immediately noticed mold in the bathroom, stains on the walls and stains on the bed sheets. Paint on wall was peeling off also.
Hallway towards entrance to room door.
Loose door lock. Had to slam door to close.
Stains on wall.
