"Here is a more balanced version that still explains the issues without sounding too harsh:
For a budget 3-star Microtel hotel, I did not expect anything fancy, but there were still a few things that could be improved. The breakfast was very basic, so I would not count on it as a full real breakfast.
The room also had an unpleasant old smell when I walked in, which made it feel less comfortable. Some parts of the room looked like they had been repaired quickly or not maintained very well, and a few things felt worn or close to needing replacement.
Overall, it was acceptable for a cheap budget hotel, but the room could use better maintenance, fresher smell, and some updates to make the stay more comfortable."
