Is this correct?

Hello,

" I don't think I will be able to persevere that long here. " (Stay in a hotel that's really bad)
and

"If there would be one thing" or "if there was one thing"

Thanks,

Tomer.

Hello, Tomer. -- OK, but 'persevere' is a little too formal for this situation; I'd use ' last' . ) "If there would be one thing" or "if there was one thing" -- Hard to judge absolutely without a complete sentence, but 'if' usually signals a conditional form (would be).
