Great place to stay on the way to the beach. We were greeted with a smile, and offered not only suggestions for dinner, but the lady at the front desk also gave us a free appetizer coupon for Texas Roadhouse, so we headed there for dinner. There are lots of options at this exit for places to eat. The hotel was clean, beds comfortable, and quiet. We enjoyed the free breakfast in the morning, and headed to the beach. Highly recommend.

Clean room, comfortable bed. Warm breakfast with biscuits and gravy, eggs and sausage; 24 hr coffee/tea bar. Evening checkin was friendly and helpful. Convenient to I-65 and fair price. Minor inconveniences like no outlets on one side of bed and no soap dispenser in shower. Definitely wouldn't keep me from staying here again.

Our room was excellent. Due to some mobility issues, we were given a shower stall. It was very nice to have. Breakfast was excellent, and parking was very convenient. There were also 2 restaurants across the street where we could get a 10% discount by showing our keycards.

Staff members were great. Property is old and has been remodeled on a budget as is common in the industry. The air conditioning unit had a loud rattle and struggled to hold a temperature. Breakfast was good.
