1st time stay!

We were in town for the Magic City Mimosa Festival and needed a place to stay for the night. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised. The rooms were nice and clean. The front desk agent was nice and very helpful. And the hotel was in a nice and quiet area. I look forward to staying at this location again.

Liked: Staff & service
The seclusion of the hotel was along with the staff. The seemed clean but the microwave and refrigerator was a dirty and the microwave did not work. Also, my mom almost tripped and fell because there was a soft spot in the floor. The bedding didn't smell fresh even after we sprayed them.

For a reasonably priced, interstate hotel, this was great. Rooms were clean. Staff was so nice. Breakfast was simple, very good, plentiful, and well staffed--normal pastries, juices, and cereals eggs, sausage, biscuits, gravy, waffles, grits, fruit, etc. The property was in good shape. TY for a great experience.
