Why does the PHL lounge smell so bad?

Airports are filled with all sorts of fragrances, smells, scents, and odors. But one particular aura hits the nose at the US Airways Club between the B and C concourses in Philadelphia ...and it isn't good.

I don't know if its the materials used in the fabric or the carpeting ...or perhaps the lounge just hasn't received a thorough cleaning in a while, but it just doesn't smell good at all. I've been going in/out of there for the last 6+ months on a regular basis and haven't noticed any change in the smell.

To me, the smell (sorry to gross anyone out) is a mix of vomit and urine ...kind of like "Frat House Basement 2 Days After a Frat Party."

Am I alone in this assessment or is something really dirty about the lounge?
