Travelodge Coalinga, Coalinga

I should have stayed at Motel 6. Service was good though. When I first go to the motel, it looked like it was something you'd see on the seedy side of town. The color for one, (faded green) with doors that were unpainted, or halfway painted, looking as though the police smashed through a few of them. When I got to my room, it was small, the bed was sagging, there were spider webs in the corners, the sofa was faded and made me think I should have brought my latex gloves. Needless to say, I had already paid for it, and wanted to get some sleep. After a bit of sleep, I felt something crawling on me, which turned out to be a cricket. This totally freaked out my gf, and she insisted that we get another room. I got a new room with no issues, and brought my little cricket friend to the front desk to show them I was not pleased. The new room was a tad better, but it had a front door that was smashed a bit and someone had tried to cover it up with a really bad paint job. When I first saw the pictures of this place online, it actually looked decent. Boy, this is a prime example of why pictures cannot be trusted all the time.
