Maritza, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room was clean and large. Comfy bed. Very minimalist kind of room. Easy access off of 95, and couldn’t hear highway noise! Breakfast was lacking…never brewed a fresh pot of decaf coffee! They had homemade jam for English muffins.

All the basics done well

Roadside hotel, recently redone. Up-ro-date furnishings. Nothing fancy, but good basic place. A list of TV channels would be nice since it takes a while to fihre things out. Perfect for a night on a road trip.
