I once booked a 10-day work trip in the best hotel I could find in a rural area...which happened to be a Day's Inn. Pictures looked great one the website so I was hopeful.
Now I am not saying they did this, but to this day I think they stole pictures from another hotel and put on their website. Place was like something out of a bad movie.
--Potholes in the parking lot.
--Pool was half-filled and green.
--Hotel lobby had a haze of cigarette that was beyond description.
--The police were at the front desk when I checked in. Apparently, they were evicting a non-paying guest.
--When I opened the room door, there was a puff of dust from the floor. It didn't look like anyone had stayed in there for weeks.
Oddly enough, it had a very updated and sparkling clean bathroom. To this day that still makes no sense. I did manage to find something 40 miles farther away and was able to book there for the rest of the trip, so I checked out the next morning.
I was in that area a couple of years later and drove by and the place was closed/abandoned. Found a news article on it and I was shocked, just shocked, to find out people had been cooking meth in rooms.
