Worth weighing

“I’d definitely return. The hotel was clean, and the location, right in the middle of Jackson, was unbeatable. The double room was modern with climate control, a safe, and multi-channel TV. Beds were comfy. Close to the station, shopping center, and restaurants. I ate a few times at Sushi no Musashi, a moderate walk away.”
