  This is a unique place. If you like shiny and fru-fru, this isn't for you. Just go down the road and check into a national brand.
  
  But if you want genuine, in people and place, don't pass by.
  
  When most places where charging a premium, because of evacuations in FL and GA, these folks where giving discounts! The rates are already Midwest-reasonable​, and include a real breakfast made to order.
  
  The facilities are well worn, there's peeling paint in some spots, but it's clean and in good working order.
  
  The staff is mostly older, friendly people from the local farm community; they're decent, hard working, companionate, and have enough life experience to understand where somebody is at by just a look and a short chat.
  
  The night I stayed and the next morning, I saw the staff helping a three people (I'll mention they were non-white only because some folks expect racism is ramped outside the cities) to get their vans alternator replaced. (Retained a local mechanic and, I believe, took up a collection)
  
  They have a cool, old-school bar with jukebox and pool tables.
  
  On my way back through a couple weeks later, I stopped in for a meal and beverage, it was too early to get a room. But a had a good conversation with a farmer. He brought in cherry tomatoes he picked from his garden, for one of the waitresses (she makes salsa).
  
  If you want to learn about courage, high stakes game theory, and business acumen, talk with a farmer who invests his family's time and money to plant vast spans of land in the hopes that weather and market conditions allow his family to pay off some debit from earlier years (or save for the next down cycle).
  
  It could be a reality rest for many of us.
