not pleased with hotel or service

the hotel had 5 rooms closed off with pad locks on them and a window broken. the Hotel room was not clean. the shampoo dispenser was covered in old shampoo which was hard. There was no continental breakfast. I paid way too much for this room. When I looked at hotels .com it had the price for 82.00 a night. that is what this hotel is worth. I booked this hotel for its proximity. I was not pleased. I did not get any of the discounts and I felt that there was fraudulent price gauging involved. I would like some one to text me to rectify this matter.
