Surprisingly good

The hotel was surprisingly clean and comfortable. The road work right by the hotel made it a little difficult to enter and exit but not too bad.

Dated property in a somewhat questionable area. However, that was exactly as expected. We needed an inexpensive place to sleep and shower, staying less than 12 hours on a road trip to somewhere else. The room was very clean, bed was comfy. Young man at front desk was kind and professional. Perfect for our needs.
