Paid way too much for this stay. $180 for a room worth $90. I am assuming that the price gouging is due to the AI contractors working, but I will not go back. For $180 a night, I will drive to Abilene.

An excellent value. It is clean and although an older property, it has been updated. The paint work in the room was sloppy, and the acrylic tub was stained but those are my only real complaints. And at the price point, it seems like a fair exchange.
