Coffee was cold. OJ was warm. The bed was apparently a purchase from a 1972 thrift store. Broken springs, lumpy and smelly. People stood outside our door talking loud and smoking which filled our room with smoke. Single pain very old window offered no rest from the freeway noise.

The room had been updated pretty well, but the noise level was pretty high. The breakfast didn’t include anything healthy, not even cereal. The refrigerator and microwave in the room helped though.
