non-working tvstained towel

i was annoyed that the tv in the room didn't work at all, it just showed a blank screen (this was a pain). also, i found a stain on one of the towels. the bathroom sometimes had a sewage smell that came from the drain, really unpleasant. i think the price didn't match the quality.
