“While the check-in staff earns points for friendliness, be aware that some rooms might leave you shivering due to heating issues and drafty doors. It seems recent renovations lean toward a stark, almost clinical aesthetic. Parking fees feel steep for a motel setup, especially when noise from other guests can disrupt the peace.”
