What a nice hotel. Couldn't believe the super quality for such a low price. Jaw dropping lobby with dual winding staircase. Super amenities.Great location. I'd give it 6 stars if I could.

Hookers on site & gentlemen's club just steps away

Got to have breakfast with a hooker 2 days in a row, so that was awesome. Same outfit and everything, right down to the cowboy boots! Maybe she came from the All Nude, All the Time establishment a few doors down. I didn't ask as she was busy filling 2 plates with food, then bringing it back to whomever she was servicing. As if that wasn't exciting enough, the noise from the highway helped keep us up nearly all night long! So, if you're looking for prostitutes and noise, this is the place for you.

Room was huge. Bed was comfortable. Clean. Breakfast was good (included). Easy highway access. Only downside was around 5am the traffic noise started and it was quite loud, waking us both up.
