El Motel Sócrates... un lugar que me trae recuerdos y sensaciones que no puedo olvidar. Es uno de esos lugares que, aunque no es perfecto, tiene un encanto especial que te hace sentir como en casa. Lo primero es su precio. Es muy barato, lo que lo hace accesible para cualquiera que busque un lugar para pasar un rato. Y, aunque no es un lugar de lujo, cumple con su función: te da un techo sobre tu cabeza y un colchón viejo con base de madera para poder hacerlo rechinar unas cuántas horas. Pero, hay algo más que me hace querer regresar al Motel Sócrates. Está el Bar El Hormiguero justo al lado, lo que significa que puedes disfrutar de una noche completa sin tener que preocuparte por nada más. Es como un premio doble: un lugar para descansar y un lugar para divertirte. Ahora, sé que algunos podrían decir que la higiene no es su fuerte. Y, sí, es cierto que no es el lugar más limpio que he visto. Pero, para mí, eso no es un problema. El Motel Sócrates tiene un encanto que va más allá de la apariencia física. Es un lugar que te hace sentir como si estuvieras en un lugar especial, un lugar que te hace sentir vivo (no, realmente no).
