It was a nice hotel

After 12 hours in the car, my wife and I desperately needed a place to crash that wasn’t the front seat. We whipped out the trusty laptop and stumbled across this SureStay. The price was right, the pictures looked promising, so we took a leap of travel faith. We booked a room with a king-sized bed—a true post-road-trip throne. The room was clean, cool, comfy, and conveniently on the first floor, which meant no dragging luggage up stairs like pack mules. Now, the shower tub diverter? It had… character. It required the delicate coordination of a NASA launch team: one hand to anchor the spout like it might blast off, and another to pull the diverter like you meant it. Minor plumbing gymnastics, but hey, the water was hot and we washed away the road trip . We reported it like responsible citizens on checkout—because we believe in hot showers for all! Parking? Plentiful. We were just a few spots away from our room, so no cross-country trek to get to our car. The guests were quiet, the atmosphere was peaceful, and the parking lot was lit up like Christmas ok, not really but our car felt quite safe as it slept out there. Breakfast? As expected. No surprise soufflés or experimental avocado smoothies—just trusty staples to fill the void in your stomach and give you just enough fuel to start driving again Final verdict? If we’re ever passing through and it’s time to sleep rather than contemplate highway existence, SureStay’s got our vote. Sleep like royalty, shower like a plumber.
