Motel Vibes and Convenient Parking!

I loved the American motel vibes! It was nice and warm upon arrival. Parking was great straight outside the room, made unloading luggage so easy. What a treat after a long drive!
The daily maid service was advertised, but I never actually saw a maid. I had to go to reception to request more toilet paper.

worn upholstery security concerns
I found the room decor stuck firmly in the 1970s, complete with worn and torn upholstery. rubbish lay under the bed. This was unacceptable. furthermore, the bathroom window opener hung loose with only one catch securing it, raising security concerns, especially because my room was on the ground floor.
