It is a “Ballad of a Traveler” who stayed at a lesser and more suspect establishment. It is not clear from the video that it is an ad until about half way in and frankly by then I was entertained so that fact did not bother me. The entire video is a dramatic poetry reading that at 3 minutes in length would not fit as a TV commercial.
