Don't stay at the 'Best Motel' in Mojave...

So I made it through the 100 mile long section E, feeling pretty good overall but with a variety of little body issues that were adding up, so I decided to take a night in Mojave to rest and heal up. My hitched ride dropped me off at the Days Inn - not over the top expensive, but still a little more than what a dirtbag hiker like myself wants to spend, so on I walked. First came the Mexican joint with a lunch buffet, then the chinese place with an all you can eat supper, then the liquor store... I knew I was getting close to what I wanted. Then from around the corner came the 'Best Motel' with a sign advertizing $38 rooms - perfect! Things seemed pretty nice at first... then I started noticing things slowly. After my shower I noticed a fair bit of hair much longer than mine around the floor - Not a big deal though. Then after getting groceries I noticed a big cochroach waiting to great me in the bathroom - still not a big deal - I chased it into a whole in the wall.
