“Staying here might mean grappling with rooms that bear the scent of past smoking and keys that demand persistence; I envision other motels in town presenting a more updated option. For those prioritizing budget above all else, and understanding that a 2-star rating comes with certain trade-offs, this inn is a place to sleep; however, be aware of potential drawbacks.”
