"Budget Inn was perfectly located, plenty of convenient stores and fast food or restaurants to consider, walking distance to parks and other shopping, the owner was amazing and very hospitable and checked in on us a couple of times each day, I'm a business owner and that kind of hospitality goes a long way, we will definitely be staying again within the next week or two"
