I had a decent stay at the Patriots Motel; it offered a good balance of value for money and comfort. The room was spacious and had nice amenities, but the overall experience felt a bit affected by noise from the nearby road and the lack of some basic comforts. It’s a solid choice for a quick stopover, especially given its price compared to other nearby options.
