Countryside Motel

OK. Lets be real. This is at best a 2 or 3 star place. We needed a quick stop over and this is what we picked based on reviews.
It was basically a clean place and cheap. That’s where the good ends. We had no soap, no ice bucket, no wi-​if, a dirty towel and group of people that had beer party outside until 2 am that would wake you up.
So don’t get too excited about the price and the other reviews. This might have been 3 star minus the beer party and clean towel.

We stayed here last night.
It’s very clear what you are getting into here; a somewhat outdated budget offering. I have elected to rate this at five stars because it was excellent at it’s targeted purpose; easy checkin, clean, functional, secure, cheap.
Without any pretensions to any higher quality than mere temporary lodging, The small size of the room and lack of amenities was hardly surprising. The only complaint that I could have is that the baseboard heater seemed a bit single-​minded in it’s determination to heat the room, resulting in me awoken at 2:00 A.M. feeling half-​broiled.

I am very satisfied with my stay here. My dad and I are driving across country and upon encountering nasty weather on I-​90 we decided to stop in as this was one of the few places with a decent review and inexpensive price in the area. Turns out it was good we stayed as they just closed one of the local roads. The innkeeper knew this but still kept her rate at $ 44 (it is the off season) even though others were jacking prices up, way to be awesome!
We got a clean room, reasonably decorated, twin beds, TV, and fridge. Although the hotel might be from another era (70’s or so) for the price this place offers a great value, warm bed and a dry roof overhead

I am writing this review IN the room. This is a 4 stars on Unilocal for sure, but in the grand scheme of things, I would rate this as a 2 – 3 star out of 5 if I were reviewing for
The check in process was super easy, and the woman at the front desk was really friendly! I read some of the user comments on google and on priceline, so when I walked into my room the thing I noted the fastest was that my room smelled freshly cleaned.
The room itself is definitely dated. There are marks all up the walls, and even with the non-​smoking designation of my room I can still tell from the smell of the curtains that the rule is not enforced. The bathroom is definitely in need of a remodel… It’s yellow. Literally, mustard yellow.
The bed is comfortable, though I can tell that it will need a new mattress soon as well.
With all of the negatives listed, why oh why would I be giving this place a 4 star rating? My room doesn’t have bedbugs, it’s $ 44 after tax, and I have free wi-​fi, HBO, and supposedly a breakfast tomorrow morning. I could have paid $ 75 down the street, but is it really worth the $ 30+ for a room that I am only going to use for sleeping?
I am very pleased with the value, as well as the service here. I will be staying here again :-)
