Slim Dusty

Room was ok, but was connecting with other rooms, I scanned to go into my room and was met with a corridor with another 3 doors, which I had to scan into another door to get to my room. The AC was daikin but when I checked to see if filters were clean they were covered in thick dust. That’s insane! Health hazard .
