Ohhh dear universe, what the fuck is it with me having truck problems in random places and finding 1 star hooker houses to spend the night?
The pro:
1. $60 a night was the cheapest in town.
2. Shower kinda worked and AC was cool enough, more on that
The cons:
1. High crime area: A vehicle was broken into overnight during my stay.
2. Weekly rates.
3. Owner did not answer me when I asked if they offer a AAA discount, maybe because his kids were yelling about and making a small ruckus?
4. Checking out, same thing. Rang the bell, kid comes out to greet me. I think they need to make her a nametag and give her a W2 at this point...
5. The room: DIRTY. Soap scum on the soap...bag, bottle, blister pack, whachamacallit? See pics
5a. Mirrors streaked and dirty
5b. Hair on my bed. Yuck. Whatever, I was too tired to care.
5c. Table and windowsill had marks from old food, condensation off water glasses, etc
5d. Speaking of which, a little glass cleaner and a microfibre towel would work wonders on the windows
5e. Still has a room key, not a card. Wow, haven't seen that since...maybe 2002ish, Curry Village, Yosemite?
6. Room was 90 plus degrees upon initial entry. AC Set to 61, took hours to cool down.
7. Kind of tight parking lot, use the outer lot
Perhaps, this would be a 5 star review absent the rooms filth and the lack of professionalism from the owner.
Seriously, I've worked retail, restaurant, auto shops, janitorial, construction, and motel roomskeeping my whole life: A little bit of good smelling disinfectant, Windex, Kaboom and a carpet shampooer would go a lllooonnngggg way here. Until then, skip. read more
