Hilltop inn's staff was both professional and kind exactly what you want to hear. The rooms were clean and the beds comfy.
Location is right off the highway, which makes it a pain to enter and exit. The building seems to very clean and taken care of. I was only visiting a friend and didnt spend overnight.

I'd like to tell you that this place is terrible, because I go there every other Saturday and want to make sure there's always a room available for me. But that would be dishonest and dickish. The truth is it's very fairly priced in relatively clean and comfy when compared to other hotels in the region at that price. The only problem is that there's a lot of Riff Raff around there. But I think that's unavoidable when staying at Budget Motels
Extremely clean room and hotel all together. Surpringly quiet despite the main road. My room had a mini fridge and microwave also, which was fantastic for my leftovers! I have nothing negative to say about the Hilltop Inn. I will be returning.

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
