A very practical and affordable motel in the area. Good sized room with fridge et microwave (fridge was noisy and I had to unplug it for more comfort), easy parking. Pretty good breakfast included for the price (fruits, granola, waffle machine, salty options, and of course coffee, juice...) It can be a bit noisy depending on your neighbors, but that wasn't a big issue in practice.
