a pretty average hotel experience

old carpet window problem
Honestly, the room felt pretty outdated. the carpet had seen better days, and i swear i saw a stain or two. plus, trying to get some fresh air was a struggle. The window wouldn't stay open without some serious diy action. it really needs a makeover, but nobody asked me.
