Very deplorable, very dirty and a very strong smell of grass everywhere!

So you are honestly getting what you paid for. So if your thinking its gonna be super nice like mini fridge or blow dryer. Nope. Its a motel. Its really good for the price honestly. Me and my husband stayed for one night after a concert. Bed was firm which I like. The floor in room 201 is bowing up in some spots. That door you have to shove open. It is tight. Which is a good thing. Its safe no one is gonna get to you in that room. Lol but the reason I put 4 instead of 5... the bath tub. It is super slippery when you go to get in. Even with a handle. So if you might want to put a towel down to give you some traction when you go to get in. I fell super hard on the tub part. Its a deeper type of tub. I held on to the handle, went to step in on my right leg. It kicked out from under me. My left inner thigh hit the top of the tub. It was so hard to even try to get back up. I hurt a muscle in my right arm trying to catch myself.... I have a failed spinal fusion on my L5S1 my bone didnt grow. So my spine is held up by 4 rods. And its at the tale bone. So I already have issues with my hips because of it. I am having my doctor on monday get me an mri so I can make sure the tub didnt mess up my back even more. I would just suggest maybe for the future.. that the motel just get cheap shower matts. So there is a little grip or traction.

What the actual .....? I arrived and find that they have canceled on me??? Really??? I agreed to the terms that I had a reservation. And if I didn't show, Id be charged for the room. I arrived to find they canceled it. Sounds an awful lot like breach of contract to me. Just like the Seinfeld episode. Fortunately the clerk "found" a room for me. Still absolutely ridiculous.
