Going in the front door it smelled funny, but by the time I got to the desk it was overpowering... curry. The management was Indian, and the whole place reeked of it. If I'd stayed there, I'm sure everything I owned would have reeked too.
The big question-how long would it have taken everything to air out? AND more importantly, did you get to watch the special on HBO?

Cross-reference to my tenant story. We pulled up the carpets two weeks ago to air the place out. All carpet batons have been pulled up as well. The back room still smells.

Air out? I doubt that was possible.
No HBO special for me.

I like Indian food, but sometimes cumin can smell like really bad B.O.

I think it's only pronounced kli-TOR-us on Seinfeld.
