Very clean and neat, friendly service. Very good motel to stay in, very good experience. I was very disappointed at the breakfast. I was expecting a real breakfast and I had to choose if I wanted a bagel or a bagel, if I didn’t like bagels then I could have bagels with bagels or go get BREAKFAST at the Waffle House. If you want a good hotel without breakfast this is a good one but if you want a motel with breakfast, you’re going to be very disappointed.

Location was convenient. Room was clean. Friendly staff. Television remote didn’t work well which was problematic because it’s football season in the South.
