This was the first affordable hotel I ever stayed in that left the air conditioner in the room on at a reasonable temperature so that the room wasn’t scolding hot when you got there and you had to wait for it to cool down

Affordable and comfortable.

When I checked in the clerk was very friendly and told me about some of the local things to do. The bed was firm and comfortable and the air conditioning made the room very comfy.

We were in town for a wedding, so only spent time in the room to sleep and eat breakfast before checking out. There was a lot of construction going on in the area, which was a bit inconvenient, but that had nothing to do with the facility. While some upgrading could be done, we felt that it was clean and comfortable to sleep.

We had a good stay. There was road construction that made it a little difficult to get in and out of the parking lot. There wasn't any meat for breakfast, but was plenty to eat. The breakfast room was kept clean.
