There's a 24-hour Denny's across the street and a pornographic book store just beside the motel. So all of a person's needs are covered. No complementary breakfast, but those are often a disappointment. And if you don't like the vibe, there's a Super8 Motel on the other side. So far, so good!

I asked for a different room once I realized we were booked next to housekeeping. My answer was, “Housekeeping doesn’t come until 9:00.” Thanks.
