Comfortable and well located, very much a motor lodge and not a Hotel.
Pros:

Good location and free parking

Cons:

Not a 4 star Hotel, not even a Hotel, at best it’s a 3 star Motel. The description on the write up seems to based on a completely different Hotel. Fridge was broken and when I asked for ice they didn’t have any.
