Hotels rented by the hour are for sex only. Note the mirrows.

I stayed one night at a Green Bay motel called the Night Hawk. Every hour or so, the guy in the next room would go outside and start his semi and let it run for 15 minutes.
It became "seared" into my memory as the Motel Night Stalker...

If you go to the TripAdvisor site, the comments are basically saying the hotel looks like it should charge by the hour (it’s apparently that crappy). The regular rate is around $225 - $229 per night based upon the aforementioned comments.

A-RAB hotel and your hotel would seem like a palace. <<<

I’ve stayed in some real nasty flop houses in the Third World (e.g., grey water from the spigots or army ants crawling up the walls), but 20 years ago the Roosevelt Hotel in NYC was a shocker because it was (a) expensive and (b) a pigsty.

blankie-blankie hotels in Rio de Janiero are awesome

there was one in Sao Conrado that was great...decent food too...all very discreet...private pool, roof opening up...just incredible

ah to be a young man about the world again

(pre-AIDs)

worst hotel for the money in my day......stayed in a rough place in San Jose Guatemala once....dirt floor, hammocks

Jamaica had a problem back then with decent staff...cultural laziness and bad manners....Butch and Eddie fixed that

“condommints $.75”

No, that big pink mint was free—but it tasted waxy and wee wee-ee.
When I was 11 my younger brother and I put a quarter each in a gas station machine in Tulsa, OK that promised a `pussy-stretcher.’
Sure enough, it coughed up a tiny paper cat reclining on a little stretcher.

“Large Mirrors along one wall” and “A very long narrow room”?

I’m going to go out on a limb here, but I’m pretty sure there’s a secret room built out of the space they stole from your room, and thus the two way mirror.

Bring your evening to a climax at tryst-friendly La Semana Hotel (25 W 24th St between Fifth and Sixth Aves, 212-255-5944). Spend three glorious hours in a room with a dodgy duvet cover, a hot tub and mirror-lined walls, for just $82.

When I hear stories like this it always reminds me of the British hotel on National Lampoons European Vacation...

Sounds nicer than a place I stayed in near the Oakland Airport. Slept in the tub with the matress pulled over me because of the continual gunfire outside.

In the metropolitan NYC area(including the outlying suburbs) no legitimate motel charges by the hour. Those are what are known here as “No-tell Motels”. Their express purpose is for hourly trysts of the more sordid kind. No local would even think of booking a room for a nap and a shower, it just isn’t done. Goodness knows what horrific pornographic encounters go on in those places. Out of towners should stick with the reputable chain hotels or a YMCA.

Weird. Semana is Spanish for weekend and the name sounds inviting.

Wow! Glad I don’t travel much anymore, but it was “entertaining” reading about this place.

Yikes.

I can smell that room from here... recycled airline pillows on barely used full-sized 1970s Sears economy bedding in a 10X10 bathroom. Nothing says HONEYMOON quite like the Pimp n Suite
