| - I drove from LA to Pheonix non stop in the middle of the night after work on a Friday night to attend my Best Friend's Baby Shower in Pheonix.
I should have just taken the day off and drove in the daylight. After a blowout on the 10 freeway at 100mph, and dealing with a AAA driver not knowing anything about how to work on a Mercedes, I was dead tired when I pulled into parking lot of SprillHill Suites in Pheonix around 3am Saturday morning. I checked in and found my nicely appointed room very inviting. I dont know whether it was my Hellish night or what, but that had to have been the best shower I have ever had in my life! The bed was soft and I crashed out pretty much the second my head hit the pillow.
When I was walking towards my car, I noticed that it looked as though my trunk was open. I walked over to the rear and noticed that someone had drilled out the locking mechanism and openned my truck, stealing my laptop and the Baby gift I had gotten for my Best Friend. I was pissed I confronted the front desk and they showed me a little paper stating the held no responsibilty to stolen property, which is standard for most Hotels. I called the Police, made a report and rushed to the Target nearby to get a replacement gift.
After the shower, I was fortunate enough to find a Mercedes dealership with a service department open on Saturday. They replaced the lock and had to re-key the whole car costing me 900 dollars.
I stayed 2 more nights at the hotel, waking up periodically to check to make sure my car was still there. The manager was nice enough to give me a discount on my stay, which eased my anger a bit.
The hotel is nice, but I have beef with the parking lot and the asshole that stole my God Son's gifts.
