If you want a low cost place to stay this is a good place. There’s no frills. There’s a bed, bathroom, fridge, microwave, coffeemaker and a TV. The rooms are clean and the staff is very friendly and helpful.

Well..., It Is A Motel! Learned My Lesson!
The staff was friendly and welcoming. The building and location is dated and in need of a little TLC. I can't say it was clean, but I can't say that it wasn't clean. I can say..., there's room for improvement.

Room was clean, convenient. WIFI did not work the two days I stayed at AB. Also TV required two remotes—with no instructions. An in-room information card for how to use TV, WIFI, and local attractions would be a useful addition.
