We needed a place to stay as we traveled from Texas to Alabama. This hotel was comfortable and looked nicer in person than I was anticipating from photos. It was very clean, the room was already cooled for us upon arriving. The electric curtains in our room really blacked out any lights or sun allowing us to really rest. I felt safe the entire time we stayed. I would book here again.

Everything great. Neighbors in next room were bouncing off the walls late at night. Called front desk, management immediately went to their room, noise stopped. Only negative item, exercise room woefully short of equipment.. Facilities clean, price satisfactory, breakfast good.

Check in was super easy, staff was friendly and cheerful. Room was immaculate and clean, bed was firm and comfortable. Didn't have a chance to use the pool or try the breakfast unfortunately. AC was COLD. I even checked the filter in the AC unit because all too often in hotels they aren't clean, but they had very little dust on them. Only negative I can think of was the low water pressure, but of course that didn't the temperature of the water so we were able to enjoy a nice hot shower. Check out was easy as well. It was our first stay, but won't be our last.

Perfectly fine for an overnight stay. Pool was relatively clean. They have volume control on the TVs and even at the loudest volume you can’t hear the TV. they ran out of breakfast items and did not replace them.

Everything was truly excellent! The check in staff was cheerful and courteous. The property was beautifully manicured and clean. Our room was spotless. The beds and pillows (4 per bed!) were very comfortable. We were on the first floor. I was a little worried about that. Sometimes being on the first floor and at the front of the building can be noisy but we didn’t hear anything! The breakfast was delicious with a good variety of items to choose from. The muffins were especially delicious! I plan on calling them to see what brand they are.

Everything was great, especially the Breakfast. Only one little issue. I asked for a late checkout early that morning of 5/14--which l was told 1pm. The agent cfmd it. We retd at 10:55am and we were locked out, so l had to return to the front desk to wait for the agent to confirm, but we actually didnt need the late ckout. Because we were in a hurry their was a computer issue, so she rqstd the maid service to open the door. Guess someone didn't follow thru. Otherwise our stay was great!
