Mr Evans, 27, was found guilty of rape in 2012, but successfully appealed against his conviction in April.
On day two of his retrial, Cardiff Crown Court heard the woman felt "dead dazed" and "intoxicated" the next day.
The jury was shown DVDs of the complainant's interviews with police after the alleged sexual assault.
In the first interview, she said she had drunk two glasses of wine, four vodka and lemonades and a shot of Sambuca during the night.
She said the last thing she remembered was drinking in Rhyl's Zu Bar and then holding a piece of pizza in a takeaway restaurant late on 30 May 2011, after only a few drinks.
"The next thing I remember is waking up in the Premier Inn," she said during an interview on 31 May, 2011.
"I have tried to work out what must have happened. I just can't remember," she said.
She said she had to "look out of the window" to realise where she was and, later on that day, she felt "tender", having "wet the bed" in the hotel.


She told police: "I did not know why I had gone there or who I went there with."
In a second video interview with police, the alleged victim was told toxicology results taken after the alleged rape showed she had cocaine and cannabis in her system.
She said she had tried cocaine "on two or three separate occasions" over a few months, but not during the week before 30 May 2011.
During the interview, on 15 July, she also said she had tried cannabis "with friends", although not regularly.
'Very drunk'
The prosecution previously told the court the alleged victim met fellow footballer Clayton McDonald while he and Mr Evans were at the Zu Bar.
She was seen to be "very drunk", the prosecution said, saying she believed her drink was spiked - although not by Mr Evans or his friends.
Taking to the stand behind a screen, she was asked questions about CCTV footage which showed her leaving the Zu Bar in the early hours of 30 May.
The clips then show her walking through central Rhyl, staggering at points, before entering the Godfather takeaway shop and sitting at a table.
She identified Clayton McDonald - who is not accused of any wrongdoing - in the CCTV footage inside the takeaway and, when asked if she had met him before that night, she said: "No".
When asked if she had any "independent recollection" of the events on the screen she said no.
At 03:50 BST, footage shows her sitting in a doorway before walking around with a pizza and getting in a taxi with Mr McDonald.
The pair were then seen arriving at the Premier Inn at around 04:10. Again, when asked, she said she could not remember anything about the journey.
Mr Evans is accused of raping the woman after letting himself into the hotel room where she was having sex with Mr McDonald.
Mr McDonald, 27, previously of Manchester City and Port Vale clubs, was cleared of rape at the original trial.
Mr Evans then left the hotel "surreptitiously" via a fire exit, the prosecution has said.
The trial continues.
