The gentleman at the front desk was very nice. We booked last minute and showed up just before 2:00. He was able to accommodate us right away even though our assigned room wasn't ready. The room was immaculately cleaned and smelled great. They have safety latch on the door and the window coverings are full coverage when closed. We didn't walk at all in the area but it seemed like a safe area. Very convenient to the airport, we got a Lyft easily at 4:30am on a Sunday. Was a great place to stay for the night before our flight.

Retro motel experience, but nice
The Sterling Inn is not a top of the line boutique hotel and that’s 100% okay! That’s not its lane. It’s a budget motel meant to give the traveler a clean, quiet, safe, and comfortable place to rest, and it does that well. It’s a nicely updated old-style motel: some ground-floor units, a few up-and-down. Again: quiet, clean, decently-appointed. Bed is comfortable, and has both hard and soft pillows. Microwave and fridge. Nice TV. More power points than you can shake a stick at. The Wi-Fi is good and strong, though it did cut off sometime around midnight (which was good, I should have been asleep earlier anyway!). No trouble streaming movies, and I was able to hook up my Roku stick to the TV easily without a lot of faffing around with the network. They save in a few ways that aren’t deal breakers but should be noted. The fridge is, or at least in my room was, a wine cooler, so there’s no freezer. There’s no coffee maker, and if you haven’t brought a mug, no convenient way to make a cup of tea in the morning. There’s only the one chair at the desk, and it’s a plain old wooden chair, so you probably won’t be doing a lot of work from the desk. I still liked it and was comfortable, but I’d put it on the “stay here if you really want to keep the costs down but still have an good place to rest” list. Totally recommend if you need a few nights on a budget.
