We stayed the night of May 5 in the Super 8 right off the interstate in Port Allen. I have never been so disgusted with a motel stay in my life, and I have stayed in many motels in my 52 years. The grounds were horrible. There were cigarette butts, beer cans, half-eaten food every where we looked. There were about 6 bags of garbage piled up on the grass in the corner that stayed there the whole time we were there. Some of it had been torn into by who knows what. While our room appeared to be recently remodeled, none of the lamps in the room worked. The room next to us where our son and his teammates stayed had non-working lights also. Two other rooms that other adults in our party stayed in had non-working lights. Our track team stayed there also and they reported dirty rooms, broken beds and nonworking lights. One of the beds in our room was broken. There were men hanging around on the balconies and sidewalks staring at those who were coming and going. We have stayed in a few Super 8's over the years and could not believe that one could be so awful. You can be sure we will pass right by Super 8's from now on. You should really go an inspect what is going on at this particular Super 8. Also one of the men who was lurking there asked one of our track participants to come to his room later for a pajama party. This young lady is only 14 years old! We stayed only the one night and next time will drive back home, 4 hours away, rather than stay in a room at Super 8. Cathy Barron
