    I do a lot road work, and often just need to stay in a hotel for a nights sleep and a shower, so I find the cheapest small town motels I can find.

    Many Motel 6 and Super 8 motels have been remodeled, and are clean and decent. They aren’t fancy, but the beds are comfortable, and they usually have a fridge and microwave. I try to stay under $75, but a couple months ago, I found one in rural GA for only $37.

    I spend a few minutes checking recent reviews on Google maps, weeding out those that sound sketchy, especially reports of bugs, and I’ve been pretty successful. Ive stayed in those places a couple of dozen times over the last couple of years, and haven’t seen a single bug.
