Motel Suck. Just a little.

[trof]

It's a 'Quality Inn' In Bulls Gap, TN.
We've stayed here when it was a Best Western, and it was fine.
Last time we stayed it was transitioning to a Quality Inn.
Some remodeling going on, but OK.

The room is nice.
Fridge, micro, coffee, etc.
But the TV channel program shows many channels that aren't there any more.
Minimal.
No movies.


I called the front desk.
"I'm not getting all the channels you show on your list."
"Yeah."
"Why not?"
"They changed it."
"So that's it?"
"Yeah."

OK, it's a small thing. We're warm and dry.
But it pisses me off.

Oh yeah, their internet server puts banner ads on top of every page I load.
There's one there now.
Even with my star on DU.
That really sucks.

1. Perhaps you can load AdBlockPlus while you're there, my dear trof...

I use it on Facebook and it works wonderfully. I don't think it costs anything either, but I could be wrong about that.

I'm sorry!

2. Life is hard.

9. I know. It's a pissy little rant.

Guess I was just in a bad mood.

I'm not sure if they know or not.

10. Thanks, but I guess it doesn't rise to quite that level.

But thanks, anyway for having my back.

7. annoying for sure

What I hate is the "high speed internet" that turns out to be, oh, maybe 1 megabit per second, at best. Of course you get charged like $30 a day for it too.

It was in the right place for a trip break.
