decent stay with room issues

dated room dirty windows
The room felt quite dated compared to what i saw online. wallpaper peeled slightly, and the carpets showed significant wear. the bathroom needed a deeper clean. I noticed dust and even a couple of dead spiders near the baseboards. i also thought the windows could have been cleaner. They were rather grimy.

The hotel staff were quite cute.
The room was older than expected and some updates are necessary. The wallpaper was peeling, disappointing. I also noticed the window glass needed replacing.
