Have you seen the workers at Ramada Inn on 2nd Avenue busily adding a new facade? Ten will get you 20 that they're not doing much to the interior. Hmm. I wonder why Ramada would update the exterior. It wouldn't have anything to do with Lawton's urban renewal plans, calling for the motel to be bought out and converted for the multi-use, residential retail (read Target store) development city planners have in mind, would it? The owners probably think they can shake an extra $50K out of the city by making the building look better. It's a horrible location for a motel anyway. And if you check the reviews at places like Tripadvisor.com, most guests hate it.
Just as a preview, here are the headings for the last nine reviews, and I'm not leaving any out.
"Horrible experience"
"Humid & moldy"
"Dirty"
"DIRTY, SMELLY & NASTY"
"This place is a flea motel"
"Stinky and stinky"
"Rude dump"
(My personal favorite) "Yuck"
and "More than the room was hot"

Re: Cynical ploy of the day
Hey Sheridan,
Why are you talking about your own home? Stinky, dump, dirty, smelley, nasty all seem to me like you're talking about your own hole there in Elmer Thomas Park. You are aware that stores do carry cleaning supplies, yes? Though, I'm not sure what will clean dirt inside of a dirt prairie dog home. Just how do you keep your homes clean?

Re: Cynical ploy of the day
It sounds to me like Mr. Wesson Oil has never been to the Remada Inn in Lawton otherwise he could counter with a good experience rather than a dig at Prairie Dog's. Beside the comments Sheridian quoted came from actual reviews. We should be more concerned about cleaning up our own home than any one elses. I plan on staying in Lawton and want to have visitors think of it as a clean fun place to visit. Don't you?

Re: Cynical ploy of the day
Of course, I'm concerned about the image of lawton to outsiders, but we only have a handful of motels that could possibly pass my clean test. I've been at the Ramada when I had some friends stay there about 2 years ago. It was heading to dreary at that time. Even the Best Western (former Howard Johnson's on I-44 & Gore) now has my stamp of disapproval on that place. We have a few new spots that are decent. Hope they can maintain the current high standards.

Hello, out there! I'm Bonnie Barker. You are all probably acquainted with my nephew, Sheridan, otherwise known as the "smartest prairie dog in town".
Being somewhat envious of Sheridan's success, I decided that I should host a blog of my own. I am interested in all the news that's fit to print and some that isn't. If you don't have anything nice to say, please come down to the prairie dog mounds and let's dish!
