"This is an older motel with a new facade on the front entrance and the rooms have been recently renovated. Unfortunately the walls are thin and can hear EVERYTHING in the next room through the connecting door. One bonus is the morning breakfast which is at the connecting diner with made to order meals, good portions, and fast service. #1 option was two eggs, hash browns, and toast."
