(8/25/2015) The absolute worst five minute motel experience I have ever had. $68.00 for a bed full of hungry bugs. I had been driving all night and was exhausted when I stopped at the Bel-Air Motel in Alice, TX. It looked very old and run down but the motel owners only eat people in the movies, right? There were dozens of tiny bugs on the sheets when I pulled back the cover. One was adult and the rest were tiny hatchlings. I was not a biology major but they looked like lice. Long and narrow and ran incredibly fast for their size. I crushed the adult with my finger and it was full of red blood. I now know what the little critters like to eat. The owner was very angry with ME when I requested a refund 3 minutes after checking in. Of course, the owner could not see anything on the sheets. This harrowing experience gave me sufficient adrenaline (and fear of motels) to complete my trip. read more
