I was initially pleased with the room. It looked clean and spacious for our family of 5. It had been a long travel day, so we settled in and i began giving my kids showers, I carried each one from the bathroom to the bed so I could keep the flow moving and get the next child cleaned up. With three kids, water ended up on the bathroom floor, so I went to change my socks. I couldn’t believe how dirty the floor actually was. My socks were completely black.
I didn’t want my freshly bathed kids running around on such a filthy floor, so I tried wiping it down myself, and it was dauntingly difficult.
Because of this, the rest of our stay wasn’t enjoyable. Instead of relaxing, I kept thinking about how dirty the room must really be.
It’s a hotel near the airport so I know it’s going to be dirty due to the high traffic, but they weren’t running around the lobby, they were running around a room. Seeing everyone’s feet and socks so filthy black was disappointing and unsettling. Even now after we got home and laundered everything, I can tell which socks came with us on this trip.
