Awful Motel
The room was small (suppose to be a suite with a kitchen). It had a small sink and a mix of dishes and utensils that clearly came from a thrift store as they were things your grandmother would have had. Nothing was clean. The shower was disgusting, the water out of every faucet in the room smelled like sulphur. The carpet was stained all over, everything in the room was falling apart. Toilet paper was just on a metal rack, no roll hanger/dispenser. There were rules that no visitors after 11pm or noise after 11pm. The smell of curry was brutal as the room was attached to the office which was attached to the other suite which the desk staff stayed in. Very noisy, all you could hear were cars on one side and the office staff chattering on the phone in a foreign language as well as their tv. If you wanted room service (cleaning/towels etc) you had to go to the front office and ask between 11am and 2pm. The tv was huge but it was an OLD style tube tv that took 5 minutes to warm up before you could see picture. When you finally did, their advertised "cable tv" was only like 20 Channels. The last night of the 2 nights I actually found bugs in my room.

Still in the 1970's
Beds were hard and uncomfortable. No microwave as promised. Only one towel for two people. No coffee maker. The room was very dark and dingy, probably has not been updated since the Motel opened. However the worst was that you had no control over the heat / air conditioning. The thermostat is locked behind one of the plastic boxes and has a paper taped in it so you cant even see what the temperature is. We asked if they could unlock it so that we could turn the temperature up. We were told that we can shut the vents or cover them up, that the air conditioning would change at 10 pm so it would not be as cold. Not sure what time they turn it down again but by 8 am needed to put a jacket on. :(
