It's modest, but clean ... and a refrigerator

We were road-tripping across the country for a move from Chicago to LA when our alternator blew. After being towed into town, our tow truck driver brought us to Traveler's Inn on 4th Street. Because we were moving, we had our dog and cat in tow, so we needed a pet friendly option, and this modest motel filled the bill.

The room was pretty basic, but it was clean, and there was a small refrigerator to store our wine. The TV had cable including HBO. There also is a pool out front, but it was closed as it was still early in the spring. The motel also is AAA approved, so if you have a card, you get a discount.

There are a few nearby dining options, too, including a Taco John's and a old-time diner. Convenience stores also dot 4th street.

Overall, it was very comfortable, pet friendly and cheap. Just what we needed for our short stay in North Platte.

• Pros: Budget hotel, pet-friendly, refrigerator
