The not so good - The refrigerator had an old juice bottle and additional drinks in it from the last guest. The bed sheets seemed dirty (had hair on it + stains) + left over trash behind the bedframe. The AC unit is covered in dirt. The good - Carpet was vacuumed and seemed really clean. The bathroom area is absolutely clean and beautiful. Location is a quiet spot along I-80 with a Loves gas station near by with all the amenities you would need. Overall, for the price you cannot find a better option nearby. Bonus - The cicadas will keep you up all night
