Nosy freeway corner lot but easy to find

The beds were changed daily and clean, however, promised breakfast was name only. It consisted of basic coffee (cream & sugar were out by 6:30). Sometimes there were no coffee as you can notice there were some people with large thermos filling it. The only little pastries they had were irritatingly wrapped in so many layers of wrappers. Hm...

We could hear a lot of noise (outside cars movement in street and people walking in halls). The place was clean, however when we came inside the room the bleach odor was too much, I feel it made the room smell weird. We were visiting family for one day, so it was convenient for the night, just not the our best experience or the most comfortable place to really rest.
