"We spent one night at the Plaza Motel, on a road trip from Montana to California. The motel is what we expected: fairly basic, with parking right outside your room door. The room was clean and well-maintained though a bit dated. There was a coffee machine, microwave and refrigerator, which we had to turn on when we got to our room (it was a very small refrigerator so it got cold pretty fast). There are ice and vending machines. It looks like there are picnic tables and a grill on the lawn; we did not use them."

"Good facility close to town but the kitchenette was lacking. We would have appreciated a toaster and a bit more than a hot plate to cook on. The coffee maker was a nice touch but difficult to pour water into without spilling. The bed was comfortable but the legs on the very edge of the frame resulted in several stubbed toes. Would I come back? Only if a better property was not available."
