Need Deep Cleaning

We stayed at this location and check in was great. Kind staff and friendly housekeepers. Upon entering our room we could see the outlets and chrome was all rusted including the safe. The bathtub was slippery and had no water pressure. I feared of falling every time I showered. The groves in the groat looked gross. The corners of rooms were dirty. The carpet or rug was uneven and sticky. The most concerning was the ventilation. No fan and could see the attached rooms vent plate so the steam and bathroom odor went between the walls. We didn't use the pool or hot tub nor have any of the breakfast food. I have stayed in prior years and this was very disappointing.
