I paid $67, tax included, for this room. It had a fridge and a microwave, it was so tidy it sparkled, and everything in the room seemed shiny and brand new. I slept well here. The room was solid and well insulated, with only slight highway noise. There was free wi-fi, and it worked well.
I've stayed in hotel rooms that looked like this in major cities and paid more than twice the price. So against that standard, this place is a bargain. And of all the places I stayed on my 4-week trip through the southwest, this one was by far the nicest. It was also the most expensive.
Now the drawbacks. Breakfast included in the price was spartan. (Cereal, juice, coffee, bland bagels, sickly sweet pastries, green bananas, lousy apples. That's it.) My AC didn't work; thankfully the window opened. The staff were less than sunny and attentive, but not overly so. That said, this was everything a 67-dollar room should be. I should have been happier.
Trouble is, I didn't really want a $67 room. I was just passing through and only looking for a bed and shower. So I would have been happier paying $32 for something a little less new and sparkly with no breakfast. If you are staying in the area for a while and are happy with the price, though, you will probably be thrilled with this place.
