1. We entered and it literally smelled like somebody had thrown up in the room, which we believe was the case given the clients in a 'conference' at the time that should have been in a 'low rent' hotel as they were 'low class' and known per an honest employee for wrecking the place.

2. The 'upgraded' room they gave me for my trouble at the aloft meant it had a big round table in it for 'conferences' otherwise it was a very tired dingy room that did have a faint smell of cigarette smoke.
