The room was very musty and humid, the AC was turned down to 60° so I assumed it was recently turned on and the room faced west with the sun beating the window. As of 0130 I went out to sleep in the truck with a soaked bed and a still hot, humid room.

Broken glass at the building entrance upon first arriving to the hotel, roaches in the room, stains on the towels and sheets, no trash can in the room, and no remote for the TV. Won’t be staying here again.
