"no tell" motels?!?????????????

Question

im like just curious but my friends are talking about "no tell" motels

and i dont know much about them except the fact that you dont have to tell them anything

does anyone know where there is a list or something of these kinds of motels?

Answer 1

These are the sort of motels which wouldn't appear on a list. Look for the motels in your area which rent rooms by the hour. Actually, there aren't so many of them as there were a few years ago.

Answer 2

they are low end priced motels

usually in low traffic , low business or low tourist use areas

you can pay with cash  

Answer 3

It's not they you don't have to tell them anything.  It's that they won't tell on you.  They're typically adult oriented, show adult movies in the rooms, etc.  You have to register and pay.  I don't know how much you have to divulge about yourself.  If you pay by credit card you've told them everything anyway.  There used to be one across the street from a company I worked for.  Interesting traffic in and out.  Especially around convention dates.
