The room is clean but very basic. No coffee pot in room, no amenities in room. Bed comfortable. If you wish a plain jane clean room to sleep in this is your place. I think $250 a night for a basic motel room is too much and expected better. Not for me, but as I said clean and comfortable just very very basic.
