Leftovers sock from prior guests, which means they didnt vacuum but if you walk on the floor barefooted your feet become black from the damp squishy floor. Only gave us 2 towels and the door had major space around the doorframe. The atrendant was not even remotely friendly either. No "do not disturb" sign so they came in our room everyday and made beds.
