I must say that I have to agree with her based upon my experiences. Way back when I traveled a lot by car I occasionally had the unpleasant experience of staying at a ho/motel run by immigrants from India. These places always smelled like B.O. and the bed sheets were changed after some number of uses, not daily, regardless of whether the occupants changed or not. More than once, after smelling the room I immediately checked out, hopped into my car and drove until I found a better quality establishment.
One problem is that Indians now own a sizable amount of the motels in the US.
