FJ - Trailer Friendly Motels To Stay At On The Road

Post by FreighTer Jim » Wed Jan 23, 2019 3:51 am

A constant challenge when you are traveling with a vehicle in a trailer is where to safely stay at a motel for the night - particularly in extremely cold weather.

I drive a diesel truck & use a block heater so it is essential I stop somewhere safe that has a 120 volt plug in a close distance from my truck.

In Peoria, Illinois ....

Baymount Inn off I-74

70 feet parking space as you enter the property
Electric outlet at end of your building or your room
$56 with coupon

Can you recommend somewhere you have safely stayed ?

Did Tim take care of you ok ?

Got your text .....

Spent the night at the Beckley Travel Center
on I-64 outside of Beckley, WV.

Grabbing a $5.00 shower before I hit the road.

I always stop here when traveling I-71 between Cleveland & Columbus.

Plenty of truck & trailer parking.

$44 for a single ( tax included ) if you use the coupon found in the coupon book listed in rest areas.
