On a very costly trip to see the USA, we spent a night at a roadside motel in Paw Paw, MI. Why Paw Paw? Well, every lodging option between Battle Creek and Paw Paw was full to the brim with crazy car enthusiasts. THe hotel room swe had was noisy, cold and smokey. I would have a better night's sleep in the truck than in the nasty motel. At the time, my Taller half was ready to take me to ORD and put me on the next flight home.

The rest of the trip had its ups and downs, but we'll never go to Paw Paw again.

As for the Henri IV, I have friends who swear by that hotel. It seems like quite the dump, but the place dauphine is quite lovely.
