One of the nicest...That's an intriguing atrium.<br />One of the nicest I stayed in was the Beverly Hills Hotel - but that's because I was having a hot affair (we didn't leave the room for four days).<br /><br />Worst motel - - Amarillo, TX - where the guy next door went bonkers and threatened to kill everyone.Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619128793632680659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16253353.post-33947831580997086182015-07-17T15:09:40.417-04:002015-07-17T15:09:40.417-04:00I agree. There are few differences between motels/...I agree. There are few differences between motels/hotels any more. I want a firm bed and pillows, an AC that will cool the room appropriately (67F is fine for sleeping), and blackout drapes (I hate the parking lot lights seeping thru, it should be dark to sleep). And the hideous does stand out, like the place in Columbia, TX with a bare light bulb that blew when I turned it on in the bathroom, coupled with green shag rugs, dark paneling and fluorescent cove light. The trains that came by every few minutes (quite literally) would almost bounce you out of the bed. There were some decent ones on my vacation 2 weeks ago, I am now sticking with Best Western pretty much all the time, they seem to be pretty much the same, and thus predictable.<br /><br />Peace <3<br />JayAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09978841487723754585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16253353.post-26204778435749374792015-07-17T06:14:54.471-04:002015-07-17T06:14:54.471-04:00worst place - some dumpy motel in watkins glen NY ...worst place - some dumpy motel in watkins glen NY in 1982 (on honeymoon with now-ex-spouse)<br /><br />best place - doral hotel in miami FL (job interview, paid for by the interview company)anne marie in phillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11765140782182605141noreply@blogger.com
