Cheap overnight stay.

The bed was clean and comfortable, the shower was good. The lack of hand towels, tea towel, biscuits, spare pillow and the broken door lock reflected the $105/night cost. The young fellow at reception needs some PR training. Parking has very limited overhead clearance, don’t go there if you have a Yakimo or similar roof pod on your vehicle.

One of the worst motels I've ever stayed in. The room is in dire need of renovation. The room is dark, the only light is a lamp on the bedside table by the wall, so I can't even tell if the room was cleaned - I just didn't see it. But I got a full trash can from the previous guests. Parking is right in front of the door, but it's not your parking - guests from the second floor took this space and then drove in and drove out all night, not letting me sleep.
