Answer:

The narrator thinks the place is depressing.

Explanation:

"Crying all night" is usually associated with great sadness and discontent, so when the narrator says that the place where he was was wet "as if some goblin had cried there all night" he is associating the place with sadness and melancholy capable of making a living being cry all night long. For this reason, we can conclude that for the narrator the place where he spent the night was depressing, melancholy and sad. There was no happiness there, only sadness.
