Review of Microtel

Should have left when I first saw the room, but I'...

Should have left when I first saw the room, but I'd prepaid and the big sign at the front desk saying they don't give refunds (which scared me) convinced me to stay. Bad move. Smelled like old smoke and...something. The more closely I looked around, the more disturbing it became. The bathtub had a base layer of filth like my first college apartment. Cobwebs behind the bathroom door. I checked for bedbugs and didn't find any, but the mattress had a cigarette burn in it. The fitted sheet and one pillowcase had permanent, very noticeable stains, as did one of the two bathroom towels. Giant chunks of paint missing from the bathroom wall like a tenement. Hallway reeked of marijuana by 8pm, which didn't seem to be an issue for the staff. The bed was awful. Incredibly uncomfortable, even for my eight-year-old kid, which is saying something. Then in the morning one of the pillow cases had slipped and I found the best of all... a BLOOD STAIN about two inches across on the pillow itself. Don't stay at this hotel, ever. I thought it was cheap because it was small. It was cheap because it is disgusting.
