There was no complementary drink and the lounge area was closed. The staff was very nice. Sharing the breakfast lounge with on-site workers was interesting. I wanted to get a pizza but did not even feel safe walking across to the road. Public access through the parking lot was unsettling as well.

The rooms were clean and all but couple of things, it would be better to have the body wash, shampoo, conditioner and lotion in a nice bottles (like most other motels have it today) rather than smaller samples! The other thing is hallways smelled bad! But the rest all is good its a very good place to stay!
