Sure, here’s a revised version of your review that keeps the same message but reads a bit more smoothly and professionally: --- I didn’t have high expectations given the price, but this still managed to disappoint. The room was filthy and reeked of cigarette smoke, with burn marks all over the bedspread. After showering, I walked barefoot for just a minute and my feet turned black from the floor. I chose this place because I needed somewhere close to the airport with a shuttle, to sleep and shower before an early morning flight. I checked in around 3 PM, napped on top of the covers because the sheets looked as dirty as the towels, got some work done, showered, and checked out by 10:30 PM—I couldn’t bring myself to stay the night. Honestly, I would’ve been more comfortable sleeping at the airport. The one bright spot was the shuttle driver, Johanna, who was incredibly friendly and helpful.
