Alleen het ontbijt verdient een voldoende
Pros:

Zwembad en het ontbijt

Cons:

Motel lijkt op een gevangenis, betonnen bunker langs de snelweg. Heel gehorig, je hoort de buren bijna letterlijk praten.

Pros:

Staff is very friendly and helpful. Decent, hot breakfast, especially for what passes as "breakfast included" these days. This is my go-to property when I am in Tucson.

Cons:

Would like a coffee maker in the room.
