6. The room smelled horrible - - a cross between mold and tobacco - -the hot and cold water in the shower shifted without warning; the drain in the bathroom was clogged; there were broken beer bottles in the parking lot in front of the entrance; the door to the room did not open - - you had to give it a heave ho with your shoulder; it was dark in the hallways and unclean; those loitering about the premises seemed to fit in the environment; I took off at the crack of dawn not wanting to return and neglected to pick up my toiletry bag - - it was no where to be found by the staff a few hours later.
