"the room served the purpose it was booked for"

7.0

No breakfast provided. Location took me a bit to find. The motel manager stayed on the phone with me as I was guided to the location.

The bed / mattress was too high, Good thing I had a step stool in my vehicle or I would not have been able to get onto the bed. The wording on the front of the air conditioning unit was worn away to the point that I could not figure out how to turn it on and had to call the manager. I piece of tape with "press here for "off/on" written on it would have been a simple fix and could be replaced as needed with little to no cost. the refrigerator had a "can" / "bottle" holder on the door. it was dirty from soda or similar liquid being spilled.

The room wasn't clean. The cleaning person left a not asking for a tip, but they never came in to even empty the trash.

"Easy and comfortable."

10.0

The proprietor was very accommodating and super helpful. We appreciated his flexibility with our check-in time.

Separate soap and shampoo in the bathroom would've made the stay a little bit better, but that's all I can complain about.
