The worst place ever

This place was a nightmare. The room was dirty, crawling with bugs and cockroaches. There was no trash can anywhere, and the bathroom smelled awful. The sheets were stained, the AC barely worked, and the walls were so thin I heard everything from the next room. I couldn’t sleep and left feeling worse than when I arrived. Never again.
