Clean and comfortable.

A basic hotel. No frills but clean. I was pleasantly surprised given my past history of staying at a Motel 6. Price was right for a one nite stay. I would stay again if passing through.

Bit noisy, bit of an odor in the room which made me ponder what critters had been present previously or germs remained. But it was a great “flop” and very convenient. The staff was very pleasant.
