Westwynd Motel

Day 6 cont'd
I wanted to stay at the Westwynd because I had met the manager online and was interested in learning more about her plans to help troubled teens. I was also attracted to this motel because I like Westwynd's pet policy.
The motel room was huge. I was told that the rooms were formerly apartments, but the owner realized that both he and visitors would benefit more by turning the apartments in motel rooms at a really reasonable rate. No price gouging here! For under $90 you can get a large, clean 2 bedroom with total sleeping space for eight people (2 in each bedroom and 4 in living with the pull out seating). Oh...and a full kitchen, too!
It turned out that the manager had suffered a recent personal tragedy (type unknown to me) and so we talked very little. I wish her well.

I would also like to mention that the motel is full of drug dealers and crack heads. As a local student going to school at Peninsula High School, and knowing some of these people, I can assure you that it is not THAT nice of a place to stay.
Thanks for the comment, anphrax. I only passed through, so your warning is welcome.
I was recently terminated from this Motel. I was a housekeeper and apparently "my rooms werent up to par." According to Lynda the manager there. The other housekeepers I worked with were drinking on the job and mopping the floors with toilet water.
It is not required that they change the duvay covers on the pillows or wash the blankets. Even the employees there are druggies. I would'nt have ever worked there had I known how sloppy and lazy they are about the way they do things.

Thanks for your comment, anonymous. I will be added a warning note to my original post. "STAYING HERE IS NOT RECOMMENDED"
Take care. I'm sorry to hear of your troubles.
