Cheap hotel for a night's rest

This hotel is perfect for an inexpensive stop to sleep. No frills, just beds and a bathroom. It has always been clean, though there is sometimes damage to a wall or door frame that needs to be done.

I arrived very late, but I was greeted and felt comfortable. I was obviously tired and the front desk attendant asked me if I needed anything. She informed me where to park and the time breakfast was ready. It was perfect because I needed to leave at very early. The breakfast area was very nice and there was plenty of room to seat. It was a nice stay.

The breakfast was marginally OK. Waffles with no butter or margarine. No fresh fruit. No bread, toast or muffins. No yogurt. No hot cereal and only sugar coated dry cereals. The hot drink options were, however, very good. The room was adequate, however the space was run down with lights that didn’t work or flickered, an outlet that didn’t work and paint peeling in the bathroom. Also the bathroom door was damaged, mended with tape and didn’t close correctly or lock.
