They need more than the 1 person I saw working there. It took a long time to get his attention so that I could check in. The bathroom door was not functioning properly. I had to lift up on it to open and close it.

Great property! Very, very clean. Host/owner was excellent! Thought it was a great value. Room was large and roomy with a great mattress, large bathroom with plenty of towels. Everything was in excellent condition. Would definitely stay here again.

Trouble checking in
The room was clean and roomy. Bed was comfortable. Nice long counter in the bathroom. Skimpy with the soap and shampoo. Check in was a little shaky as hotels.com charged our credit card but their payment to the hotel errored so we weren’t able to check in until they straightened it out with the hotel front desk. It took awhile to reach hotels.com but once we reached them they told us to pay the hotel the whole bill and they would reimburse us.

Rude staff
Not sure why the manager found it necessary to pound on my door at 9am, wondering if I needed help checking out. Check-out is at 11am (it says so right on the sign on the wall), so why the rush to get people out of there? Next time, I'll drive the extra minutes to Alexandria, and stay there.

Pros: Good price, clean, good shower pressure. Cute restaurant and brewery right next door. Con: TV did not work and the property manager did not try to fix it or look at it when i called down to ask. No one was ever at the front desk. Breakfast was very sub par ( example no cream cheese for bagels, no jelly for toast).

We won’t be back
This hotel has gone downhill since it was a Grandstay. We won’t be back for several reasons. Arrived late (11:40 pm, called to let them know) and was told no rooms available on the first floor. We’ve never stayed on any other floor. I asked where the elevator was and was told they don’t have one. We had a cart full of stuff since we stayed for 5 days. I’ve had 2 knee surgeries so not thrilled. Apparently they are trying to save money as the common areas/hallway was not air conditioned. It was stifling. Lamp did not work, had to ask for a light bulb. Cut back on breakfast (didn’t even bother). No eggs, no meat, crock pot with dried up gravy for biscuits. Pool hours are 9-9 instead of midnight on weekends so not able to swim. Shower shelf was scummy so obviously not cleaned thoroughly. I couldn’t understand the front desk clerk (he had an accent). No ice machine on 2nd floor. This hotel used to provide Bath & Body Works products for shampoo, conditioner and lotion. Now it’s a packet that would in no way work for my long curly hair (glad I brought my own). Like a ketchup packet. Kleenex were like wafer paper so had to use a minimum of two per time. Went through an entire box so doubt they are saving money by going cheap on supplies.

Beware of the pool!!! I have no idea what they have in it but it is not just chlorine in my opinion. My husband had a blue shirt on which has faded to almost pink. Two others bathing suits totally faded. Two in our party had terrible burning in there eyes and had to get drops. Their eyes were still swollen the next day. The motel was very clean and quiet. The staff was not friendly at all

Could be worse
It’s a roof over your head with very minimal accommodations. Room was clean. Breakfast was minimal. But when the hotel owner knocked on everyone’s door at 10:27am telling them to check out. When check out is clearly stated 11am. I scurried out of their faster then a church mouse!

We didn’t have much opportunity to evaluate anything since we checked in at 10 PM and left the next morning at 8:30. We were disappointed that the swimming pool was not open after nine. I thought the breakfast could have had more choices like maybe some scrambled eggs and meat however, I realize that this facility is in a small town and maybe does not get as much business as the larger Inns so it would not be cost-effective to have a huge selection!Thank you
