The Bible: 5 Stars

Front desk staff was nice. You have to get a bag of ice from the front desk, as well as an iron and hair dryer. However, a Bible was available in the room, which was very nice to see.
This Bible was an awesome find.

Not in the best area of town. Rooms were clean and not to much noise. Reminded me of the roadside motels that we used to stop at on cross-country trips when I was a kid. Basically a decent place to get a good night's sleep.

The room itself was clean, comfortable and everything in the room worked well. Refrigerator was cold. Outside the room was not so clean or comfortable. Ice machine out of order. Lobby and hallways were odorous. No vending machines. A bar next door + or -. If you are looking for an inexpensive stay relatively clean and comfortable and don't need amenities...Good place. If you are expecting more, keep looking.

Well-kept room except the toilet wouldn't flush because the chain inside the tank had rusted. We were able to temporarily fix it ourselves. The phone in the room wasn't connected so we couldn't call the front desk asking for help.
