When during a stay in November, the heater in my room stopped working, they pulled out all the stops to try to fix the problem. When they couldn't, they changed my room to a larger one quickly and efficiently. I think they handled the matter professionally and promptly, not necessarily something I would expect considering how little I was paying for the room.

If they don't stand buy you threaten small claims; if there are enough dollars invloved, take them to samll claims. 1) have your credit card company/bank void the charge.

Although the room was clean, it is clear that the motel chain is mis-named.
