This is the 2nd time I've been sleepless because of guests at the motel. First time I was kept awake because of a rowdy drunk hockey team staying there. This time it was because of a guest with dogs. They went out and left their dogs in the room. So all we could hear is the dogs barking non-stop, while their owners were out. Then throughout the night, the dogs would bark at the slightest sound. And we were 4 doors down from them.
So here's a tip for dog owners(and yes I'm a dog owner) leave them in a kennel or at a friends while you travel. Not everyone wants to hear your dumb mutt all night.
