a mixed bag, i suppose
bathroom door poor maintenance
the location was definitely convenient. it got me where i needed to go.
The room needed some serious tlc. the bathroom door was practically falling off, and i saw cracks all over the place. the whole place just felt worn out. It clearly hadn't seen any real maintenance in ages, sadly.
