uneven stay

spacious roomdamp smellwobbly toilet
the room was spacious enough.
The bathroom smelled strongly of damp. It was quite off-putting. the toilet wasn't properly attached to the floor, so it wobbled precariously. the shower cubicle needed a good scrub. I didn't feel comfortable using it!!!
