Wee were able to check in earlier than 3pm for $20 cash. The room was small, tv worked, mini fridge/freezer. Bathroom had a child size commode, pedestal sink and a walk in shower. It is on a busy street but not a lot of traffic. Center divide prevents a left turn out of the parking lot. Staff were friendly and helpful, a/c was cold.
