I travel in a Ford Transit conversion van with my small senior dog. This time I'm traveling with my adult son so we'll stay mostly in motels to save time and stay warm until we're further south.

Worked fine for us
Baymont By Wyndham Gainesville I-75This trip to Florida from Illinois was to have been an extended conversion van trip for us, but my husband couldn't make the trip. Instead, my son suggested he would go with me, but we needed to stay in motels. I tried to find modest price motels, but it's hard these days! This one worked for us, at least as well as the pricier motel in which we stayed. There were no 1st1st-flooroms due to renovation. I wanted to do some laundry, and the good news was, there was a laundry room two doors down from us. The bad news was, it was dysfunctional. We were on the highway side, but with the air-conditioner running, it wasn't too bad. It didn't feel overly clean, but it was sufficient. The folks here were very nice, though. Staying in my van in the woods would have been much nicer, but this worked fine for us.
Meh
Best Western Plus Bowling GreenThis trip to Florida from Illinois was to have been an extended conversion van trip for us, but my husband couldn't make the trip. Instead my son suggested he would go with me, but we needed to stay in motels. I tried to find modest price motels, but it's hard these days! This one worked for us, at least as well as the one pricier motel in which we stayed. It was ok, felt relatively clean, and I slept well. Breakfast was a disappointment. They served the same thing as all the other motels these days (someone is making a fortune on waffle and pancake makers and plain or pumpkin spice bagels) -- but the waffles here were sour. The milk for the batter must have been spoiled. And they didn't have the bagels. Staying in my van in the woods would have been much nicer, but this worked out for us.
Always liked La Quinta
La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Louisville EastI liked this one too. This trip to Florida from Illinois was to have been an extended conversion van trip for us, but my husband couldn't make the trip. Instead my son suggested he would go with me, but we needed to stay in motels. I tried to find modest price motels, but it's hard these days! La Quinta was probably the nicest place we stayed, although we were on a second floor and had to go through two hallways and use an elevator to get my pooch outside. Staying in my van in the woods would have been much nicer, but this worked out fine for us.
