Joplin hotels

Questioning why your staying with them.
Why? Well my house could be under construction, maybe I am passing through on vacation, or too tired to drive the last hour of my trip? My house is being bombed for pests? Had a house fire- the reasons to stay at a hotel on the outskirts of town are endless!

Hell I have gotten to drunk to drive and checked into a hotel right down the street from my house once.

But anyway- Just wanted to let ya all know, according to a hotel in Joplin, if you live within 80 miles of the location, they need a major credit card for "incccendtials" (which I don't have)(even when you book on a booking site) And they question you as to why you are there- Honestly that irritates me, b/c I enjoy getting out of town once in a while- I have my reasons dang it!

Stacey,
You found a hotel that's using the LEO checklist on how to identify hobby folks that also identifies civies having affairs.
Most large hotels file that in a shredder. Small/medium hotels run by bible thumpers simply lose the revenue to another hotel.

Hit Downstream next time. Their prices aren't bad and definitely better than Hilton Garden Inn and Hampton Inn. They have free Valet parking also. I stay there every 2-3 weeks and life an hour and a half away from there. And, they assume you're there to gamble and don't ask questions. Tons of people from Springfield stay there often.

"Run by bible thumpers"- that pretty much sums it up
