Roaches are the new normal. A complaint letter because...

My friend and I were a little discomfited to encounter one of the largest roaches I have ever seen in a motel.

I realize that nothing will stop them indefinitely; but it was upsetting to her to encounter one in bare feet as we were retiring. She (and then I) attempted to speak with the manager about this; and as of this writing (to be fair, only about 4 hours)... I have not received a callback from him/her.

Also, (and I notified the Santa Ana PD via tipline), we were accosted by a "gentleman" selling glass (meth) in the wee morning hours;  he then returned to harass my friend as she was checking out.  And she's streetwise, but still was scared.  I realize that the real world does intrude on the ordinary; but ...

She's stayed there at that location for years, it is convenient for her work schedule and she feels comfortable there... usually.  Spending $89 for a room may be standard at this point, but it seems to have been a little less comfortable than usual.

Pictures attached.  (I actually feel sorry for the critter, he wasn't trying to upset us)
