I'm in a Motel 6 in small town Pennsylvania surrounded by hookers and cops.

The hooker was just going to town on the guy in the room next door. I heard her for 10 minutes non-stop.

I kid you not.
 
The wall was shaking. Now that the hooker is gone, the place is quiet as a mouse.

I'm sure it'll start up again. The night is young.
 
I just prayed one Rosary.

Padre Pio prayed 30 rosaries a DAY.

I got a long way to catch up.
 
The lowest price at a Hampton Inn by Hilton I have ever seen was $79 pre-purchase/Honors discount.

Prices vary WILDLY depending on location and time of year.

Lately, I have been getting much better deals in certain locations at the mid-level hotels like Doubletree and Hilton Garden Inn than I'm seeing at Hamptons.

On the Marriott side, same story. I can often stay at the more-upscale Springhill Suites cheaper than the Fairfield Inn right down the street for some reason.

Anyway, it pays to shop around while avoiding the dumpy chains.

Double tree & court yard R the go to.

Double tree & court yard R the go to.

I don't see the value at Courtyard. Nothing is free. Rooms aren't anything spectacular. And you don't get five-star service like at an actual Marriott full-service hotel.

I like Springhill Suites much better in the Marriott-branded lineup.
 
This is like a bad movie.

The headboard in the other room is pounding on the wall. Someone is either getting strangled or getting pregnant. Maybe both.

Wow. It's going to be a long night!

Big DT fan, also any Westin property is top notch.

I have not ventured into Westin territory, but I stay at Doubletree hotels a lot. You can get great deals in some locations, great Honors point bonuses, and elite members get free cooked-to-order breakfast. Love DT if it works out in my travels.

You have good taste my friend.
You would enjoy Westin brand.
 
I got to the Motel 6 an hour ago.

I am on a visit to the Padre Pio Shrine. As soon as I got to the motel, there were two cops in the halllway next to my room. One cop starts talking to me and asks me what I'm doing in this town. He was polite. I told him I was going to the Padre Pio Shrine and that I was from Maryland, near D.C.

One of the cop starts pounding on my neighbor's door and he says he's looking for an African American female. I assume she's a hooker. The guy next door took 10 minutes to answer the door. I think the hooker is hiding in the bathtub. I heard him talking later and I think she left.

I'm going to Red Lobster tomorrow after Padre Pio.

So you're in a Motel 6 and you're surprised that you're surrounded by cops and hookers?

I'm leaving the Padre Pio center now. It's an amazing Place. Very tranquil. I'll post pics in a couple days.
 
It's only 8 p.m here. At about 10 is when the hookers come in. It'll be interesting to see if the Pitbull attacks any of them.
