Paxton

"Easy to get to off the interstate. Clean room and helpful staff. I was able to check in a bit early (I forgot different time zone). Yes there was peeling/bubbling paint on the wall, bathroom needs some up grades BUT clean and the driveway was a bit bumpy (shared with neighboring business). The room just needed to be dusted and the lightswitch cleaned off. I was attending a rodeo finals at Gordyville USA, 20 minutes away and met my needs."
