Mopar Nats - Stay in Renoldsberg or Heath???

I noticed the other day how the holiday inn in Heath was boarded up and looked vacant...
Another area for Motel options close by would be Lancaster. Take SR 37 South, right at National Trails & I believe it's 17 or 18 miles. Nice/Safe scenic town & they have a few major chain motels on US 33.
Not planning on going to Brice Rd. Way too many cars for only a one block area, not enough room to stretch your muscle(cars). Not the nicest area either. However they do have a Jegg's high performance store three blocks north and one block east of the Brice Rd strip, not sure how late they are open if any of you guys need to pick up anything.
