Very unhappy

My room wasn't pleasant while in the bed next to the window. The carpets smell like dog. I had to smell that for 3 days. The TV remote was dirty as hell and it didn't have any batteries in it. The parking lot was the cleanest thing there. If you think I'm lying asks for the pictures, I have pictures of how bad the room look.. I also lost my luggage when I checked out.I left the luggage by the counter.It was only the staff there.And the security guard, but when I called back to check no one's seeing it at four o'clock in the morning when I checked out.

Flop house

The Jack London Inn was a flop house with prostitutes and illegal activity. There was cigarette and Marijuana smoke throughout the floor. The condition of the hotel was dirty with deferred maintenance.
