Independence Inn aka MX Motel is a classic mid 20th century motel. It is clean and the beds are comfortable. They provide WiFi and satellite TV. The quick stop convenience store in front of the motel is where you check in. Staff was very personable and made you feel welcome.

Met expectations for a small motel, which means I can't give it five stars, however, the beds were very clean and the towels were soft.
