The so called city view was a view of the fence and parking lot. The bed was extremely uncomfortable and had a gap in the centre.

Checked in. Went to our room and left again to book the motel next door. Will not accept a room with no bathroom facilities. My fault for assuming there would be some in the room. Will never stay there.
