First you have to clean it. After that you should have less stink. If it is stink from tobacco you will need to prime with oil based primer and then paint. Tar and nicotine will bleed thru waterbased primers and stain your paint.
First you have to find what is stinking. Is it something under the bed, in the rug, dirty clothes, etc? Is it coming from a wall like you have a dead animal in the wall or mold in the wall? Finding the stink is the first step in getting rid of it.
