6/10
This hotel was by far the least expensive on a particular weekend when other hotels had nearly tripled their nightly rates due to some local event. It seems to not be part of a chain, and is located on main street of the town (but not noisy).
There is no elevator for the upper floor; stairs only.
The hallways seem much narrower than others I have experienced, but everything seems to be well maintained and clean enough.
The man at the check-in counter was probably the owner, and the only other staff I saw was very friendly and helpful.
My room, probably typical for this place, was fairly large, with more open floor space than usual for an American motel; in addition to the usual furnishings, it had a sofa and coffee table.
There was a sink in the bathroom and another nearly identical sink just outside the bathroom; this can be convenient for couples and families.
The under-window HVAC unit was situated so it blew the air up behind the curtains, not ideal. I bunched the bottom of the curtain up onto the window sill and used the alarm clock to weight them down so they would not move during the night, and this allowed the cooled air to actually enter the room instead of just recirculating back to the unit.
The bed had only one end table, and amazingly it was not equipped with a lamp. No light source for reading in bed, etc. I was told that none of the rooms had end table lamps, but the staff found a suitable lamp somewhere and brought it to my room.
