The dirty bed sheets were stained. No bible We requested a blanket that was not clean and gave it to me The shower had mould in the shower We had to ask for milk, soap, a hairdryer. This place should be pulled down by a demolition company and loaded out on trucks and then build a motel that people can actually enjoy .
