This place is a quaint motor inn. It is well maintained and the staff is friendly. They are pet friendly and close to a coffee shop, restaurants, and gas stations. Remember this is the humid south where rooms may smell a bit musty at first. That is pretty normal, folks! If I am in the area again, I will stay at this location.

If you just need a place to rest on a road trip, this is perfect. The property is dated, but clean and well-kept, and has a certain sense of nostalgia. The beds are very comfortable and the sheets were very soft. Staff is very friendly.

Great room for a passing through trip, we just needed one night and it was clean enough for that it's an older motel but the bed was soft. Air conditioner worked fine, 2 smaller bath towels is always annoying, why do hotels not understand hair and body drying needs?!? We did have to call to get someone to come check us in as lobby was locked but he came quickly, the door frame to the bathroom was gross but people are gross and I'm sure the housekeeping was rushed as usual and would get that the next day.

Lovely stay with spacious, comfortable rooms—perfect for relaxation! 🌟 Highly recommend for anyone seeking quality accommodation. While the pool was temporarily closed and bathroom sink pressure low, these minor issues didn't overshadow the overall excellent experience. Confidence in future improvements makes it easy to choose this place again. 😊🔧

It was fine for a quick stay, clean, and staff were friendly. It seemed a bit sketchy though ... work trucks were parked in front of our unit. We could hear people talking late. Our deadbolt didn't work. Other than that, it was fine. Nice kitchenette and table set up, plenty of room.

We stayed in a kitchen suite It had a refrigerator microwave etc. We were actually only there for a quick night sleep. The check-in was pretty easy great location off interstate 75. The only thing that went wrong was the toilet stop flushing but we were too tired to deal with it. I let the staff know in the morning as we were leaving.
