    Yes he lives near here. I believe its a Werner "approved" motel. I know it sounds lame when you put it that way, just bugs. But remember two things, I've NEVER seen a bug that big and why should living in a ######## be the "norm" or tolerated? Its calm now. All the hookers are probably passed out somewhere. no drug dealers skulking around trying to peddle their wares.

    .

    Generally the trainer picks the hotel, and pays for it. He'll be reimbursed by the company. Factors on hotel choice, location, avaibility, price, etc.
    He also could have invited you to stay with him, so I don't think there are any real hard and fast rules.

    Try to find some hookers with pointy toed shoes.That way after they force themselves in the room you could pay them to kill the bugs and (if you`re really resourceful) send the hotel a bill for the extermination.
    Assuming that the trainer picks/pays for the room-what kind of no good cheap SOB does people like that???

    But with the MN state bird (Mosquito:biggrin_25523:) it's just a seasonal thing and can be rid of by changing the surrounding area. Where with the roaches not even a atomic bomb will kill those darn things. Ive live in Houston, TX (actually is where I am from) and Ive been in MN ever since. But the skeeters are still more to fear than a roach.

    >>>>I'm sitting there watching deadliest catch when a girl knocks on my door, (the windows open and she can see me so I can't just blow her off) I answer the door and she asks to use my phone. I say "uh I don't think so, I'm pretty sure it gets billed to the room," she doesn't really hear me say no and pushes past me into my room, albeit not in a forceful way but in a way that doesn't command any kind of rebuttle either.

    You're lucky you're not a statistic...This is not an uncommon way for them to get in your room and rob you...A girl comes to door, gets you to open then her homies bumrush you...Better sharpen up in the hood bro or you're going to really regret it...
