During my last trip to California, I had to make a last minute reservation at a cheesy hotel near the Elton John venue. Elton was giving one of his final concerts in the area, and I had to write about it for a known publication. However, the hotel situation dominated my night. I ended up sleeping on a foam mattress on the floor because the bed was in an untidy state. The TV remote had dead batteries, and the Gideons didn’t even leave a Bible to read!
