Clean budget motel

It was clean and fine to sleep, but it smelled way too much like cleaner or air freshener. I had a headache. Other that that, it was what I expected.

This hotel is very bare-bones, but for the price, you can’t beat it! If you just need a place to sleep, this is a place for you.
