You get what you pay for
I rarely stay at hotels this cheap, but was traveling alone and was enticed by the reviews. I suspect this property would be terrific for students on a shoestring budget. They would probably not object to its isolated location, with minimal pedestrian or vehicular traffic. Ditto the spartan decor and lack of warmth. I found it institution-like. What I found most off-putting was the absence of hotel personnel at the front desk. I stayed for two days, came and went a few times per day, and NEVER saw anyone at the desk, unless summoned. Yes, it was clean, and yes, it was quiet.
