dated room decor weak air conditioning

the staff i encountered was friendly, i must admit.

The rooms reminded me of a throwback to another decade, like a time capsule i never asked to enter. the air conditioning barely made a dent in the heat. It was like a weak fan pretending to be an ac unit. i even think the sheet had a stain.
