I went to take a shower, shower #3
It’s like the cleaning person just pressed all the buttons and didn’t do anything! Terrible job! The shower floor was dirty. There was debris on the floor. Not sure what it was. There was garbage in the garbage can there was a washcloth from the person that use the shower before!
Totally unacceptable!!!

Placing Bible books next to the restroom looks disrespectful and inappropriate. Please move them — this is clearly not the right spot.
