How the mighty have fallen.

For me a Super 8 is about the minimum and even then some of those are pretty crappy too.

I stayed at one in Montana. I wasn't getting a good vibe at that place and the room stank of cigarette. (I grew up in a family with some smokers so in most cases it doesn't bother me but the room just reeked of cigarette. Even the shirt I slept in had a cigarette odor).

I did stay in a Super 8 before hand and compared to the Motel 6 it was a five star luxury hotel.

It's was just fine. A bit Spartan, but for what i paid, it was just fine.

The biggest reason i stayed is i talk the dog on a business visit. They have a VERY pet friendly policy. No upcharge, no deposit.

He spent one evening and one day on the big bed and was happy as could be. Then we got in the car and drove home.

Most seem to have gone down hill the last couple decades. It is great they allowed you to stay with your dog. Most hotels are not as kind when it comes to animals.

than what is being told....I know this area..off I40 - only because I drove to CO from AZ last July -

It is a dump..a good truck stop - and that is it! - I stopped for gas across the street from this motel - I wanted to stop I was so tired..Nope - no way - no how...got a cup of horrible coffee and just kept going to Sante Fe...it was midnight when I pulled in to SF -

Read some of the comments on the koat story..they are sickoooooos!

Another story re this - she, Lynn, was visiting friends????..friends like that????? Nope...come on Lynn - you can do better than this!

got "exhausted" from what?

Depends on where they were coming from - if it was Phoenix and it was 11:30pm okay - I know the feeling - but - come on -even little 'ol me knew enough not to stick around,,and I had to go inside to get my receipt for gas..talk about bein' a petunia in the onion patch..and that was an observation of the women hangin; around...,bad - bad-bad.. nope - someone has some explaining to do!!!!

She was an anchor on the old school CNN Headline News from the start (when they still had news) and she has at times been a private detective and sheriff's deputy. So, ex-CNN anchor most likely to end up in a shoot-out?

As I remember, she was one of the ones CNN dumped when it changed gears and tried to emulate Fox.

A friend of mine moved to Albuquerque because he found a job there and within three months, he was burglarized twice. He said that despite the high paying job, he wasn't going to put up with crap like that, so he moved back to Austin. He also said he witnessed a carjacking while he lived there.

I used to have Headline News on while in hotels (because there was absolutely nothing else on) and would see her.

Seems like a long time ago.

You don't need a firearm ...until you need one.
