It was the worst experience I ever had with a hotel/motel. First of all, when I opened the door to my room, I was taken aback by what I saw: All drawers and doors of cabinets were open and pulled out. The cushions of sofa were strewn on the coffee table and the sofa. The room appeared not serviced for checking in. The floor was bare concrete, with stains of paint here and there. There was a closet for washer and dryer, but the washer and dryer didn't fit the closet well, so the door of the closet couldn't close.
But if these were the only things, it would probably only make it on par with a cheap motel. What I realized after I returned the room after my dinner was that the room doesn't have a curtain that would block the light. It had a roll up shade that only partially block some light. But at night it became apparent to me that the shade was translucent: one can clearly see me in the room from the buildings next to me and the parking lot across the courtyard. This room had zero privacy. I went down to the front desk. The staff member on site said to me that all the rooms in the hotel is like this. I was shocked that any hotel would sell rooms with no privacy. She said facetiously that it felt different. Well, I don't have a perverse desire of letting public to see me getting naked to take a shower or working in my underwear. So I ask her to switch me to a room not facing to another building, she said there was no such room available, which I knew wasn't truthful.
