Spartan but comfortable; no hang-ups
My wife and I have spartan needs in a hotel room, and when we pay $55 for a room our expectations are certainly not extravagant. Our room was more spacious than expected, and there was plenty of space for folks with mobility issues (i.e. walkers) to get around in the sleeping area and the bath though we are not those.
The room had the feeling of being recently renovated, as their sign suggests. However, the renovations appear to have stalled a bit. As promised, there was a TV, WiFi, Refrigerator, and microwave. The TV worked, but the WiFi was a bit slow. The fridge and microwave were present, but the fridge didn't work and - oddly - the microwave was sitting on a desk nowhere near an outlet. I'll presume it worked, but we didn't relocate it to confirm that thesis.
What we found most unusual was the total lack of any place to hang things up. There weren't even towel racks in the bathroom, nor hooks on the door. Nowhere to hang clothes or a coat anywhere in the room. There wasn't even a holder for a roll of toilet paper; two rolls - each with about 1/4 of their content remaining - were left on top of the toilet tank for our convenience. There was also no trash can.
All that said, we were fine. The room was warm and the bed was comfortable, though it lacked a headboard. If we have occasion to stay in Johnson City again we'll be back, if only to see whether we can hang our clothes and towels up.
