If you're taking the long journey across the southern end of the country, the East West Motel is a very decent spot to relax for the night. It's the cheapest of the local motel options, and the rooms are clean and the showers work well (a rarety on that trip...trust me!). The staff is very nice, but be prepared for a bit of a chat session with the lovely man at the front desk. ;) The food in the ajoining restaurant is decent, but quite pricey. If you're willing to drive down the road a bit, there's a cheap pizza place that's pretty nice. All in all, I'd defintely recommend staying here along the journey. It's the nicest place you'll encounter on the entire journey until you hit whatever larger city you're heading to!
