They showed the water tanks on the local news tonight. The access hatch to the water tank looked to be about 16" X 16"

never been to L.A.before, so probably figured something "downtown" was a good idea.

picked the cheapest hotel off the internet.

guessing she read bukowski in school.

figured everyone there was real friendly. maybe took a puff off that guys joint just to be polite.

Most likely someone who worked at the hotel is responsible. Who else would have access to the roof area?

Terrible for her family and the hotel guests (and workers). WTF is wrong with some people to do things like this to other human beings?

Worked in hotels for nearly 30 years. Although this is disgusting it's on par with other things that have happened and do happen more frequently than can be imagined. A lot is literally swept under the rug to not taint the image of a hotel property..

Very sorry about the woman. When it comes to the water, they should at least replace the water tank. I would think that many folks will now avoid that hotel.

Many folks already avoided that hotel.

It was not exactly The Four Seasons, if you know what I mean.
