I've always avoided Super 8 motels. But, using Pontiac as a good place to stop for the night on the way to Chicago, I thought I'd try it rather than staying at the Comfort Inn just down the street.

I'm very glad I did. The Comfort Inn is okay, but the staff there are awful, so I've never been particularly happy with it.

The Pontiac Super 8 is cheaper, cleaner, the rooms are nicer (although slightly smaller) and better equipped, and the staff are good. The *only* downside was the peculiar layout for the breakfasts - they simply don't have realy enough room to lay out a breakfast and have people sitting about. No real problem, but a little peculiar.

So, Super 8 Pontiac it is from now on.
