Not worth the savings!

The air conditioner did not work and the room was hot & stuffy. The fan came on but no cold air. No way to move the air around since it was in the top of a wall next to the bathroom alcove. Price of room, though cheap, was to much for what you got. Beds were hard, pillows thin, no air conditioning.

I stayed here 2 weeks ago when driving to visit family in Michigan and was given the same room and rate in the way back. I'm the type that just wants a clean room comfortable bed and a shower as I travel cross country. This place is a bit old and dated, and needs more outlets but overall, it is clean, convienent and the staff/owners are friendly.

The room, although not fancy, is very comfortable with table and 2 chairs, bureaus and shelves, end tables, large bathrooms. Just well laid out. Off the highway enough to be quiet. Not a pretty setting but lots of birds singing. Our second time here and would stay again.

There really isn't anything nice to say about this place. I had extremely low expectations for a place called "Budget Inn" in the middle of nowhere. But the room was filthy, beds were insanely uncomfortable, and there were tons of bugs on the ceiling and cobwebs in the corners of the walls. TV service didn't work. Only positives: close to freeway access and a convenient gas station next door, and restaurant across the street. Definitely recommend finding a different location.
