“For solo travelers, this is a budget-friendly choice and I can see why: an old-school motel, with exterior-facing doors for easy access. The pet-friendly policy will be a plus for some, and from what I gathered, the staff seems genuinely helpful. The fact that check-in is inside a beer store? Unexpected, but memorable.”
