2/10 Poor
10 September 2026
I love a good mom-and-pop motel. Give me a clean room, a decent bed, and a guy named Dave who knows everyone within 30 miles, and I’m happy.
The reviews were good. Everyone loved Dave.
There was no Dave.
I’m not entirely sure anyone knew we had a reservation.
The room itself was clean and mildly updated. We dropped off our stuff, went to dinner, and came back. That’s when the motel started unlocking bonus content.
Turns out the room next door had what appeared to be permanent residents. We had no idea anyone was there until they materialized outside our doors to smoke.
Then we noticed the mattress outside one room. The grill outside another.
Ah. There were the clues.
We decided to leave. The neighbors seemed genuinely confused about why we were checking out so quickly, which raised a question I hadn’t previously considered:
Did they think we rented the room by the hour?
We had driven past several times and somehow missed all of this. Apparently the mattress, grill, and mysterious residents are features you unlock after check-in.
The room WAS clean. I’ll give them that.
But we packed up and found another hotel before this side quest turned into a Dateline episode.
Still love a good mom-and-pop motel.
Next time, I’d just like the pop to actually be there.
And Dave. Where the hell was Dave?
