About this listen

Prepare to never look at motels the same way ever again....

Hell Motel exposes the seedy underbelly of the economy line industry, and weaves both humorous and horrific true-life tales of the people who sleep, work, and claw to survive at roach motels. This is the exposé that they don't want you to hear.

Hell Motel is the true story of a privileged, immature, and spoiled asshole named Mike, who relocates to the big city in an attempt to outrun his personal demons. After accepting a management position at a cheap dive motel, Mike is overwhelmed by the prostitutes, drug addicts, and desperados who infest the property...but through eight months of depravity, Mike is ultimately able to rediscover his humanity.

I stayed in hotels like this one, without realising it at the time. Mike Lee writes a page turner, and brings the reader/listener along with his struggles. By the end I was rooting for him to get that job he was going for. I do hope it worked out for him. I didn't like the narration though - probably a personal preference but I wish he'd got someone else to read it. Sometimes it worked, but mostly I felt it the narration didn't match the content - the narration comes across as a brash young man - matching the beginning of the story. But I felt he grew up during this period, and so did he force this brashness? Maybe writers don't always have narration skills as well.
