Nice motel walking distance from downtown

Clean updated bath, good A/C, strong WiFi and comfortable bed. Staff was extremely nice and helpful. Soap and shampoo provided plenty of parking. Restaurants, bars, cafes and convenience stores all within a few blocks. The university was only a short ride away. Great price for what you get, recommended.
