First of all you have to check in & out at a “window”, the refrigerator & toilet made noise ALL night. The entire property need to be renovated inside & out. I was suppose to stay the weekend but I checked out early Saturday morning and went to a hotel in Lincoln. Cheaper isn’t always better.

The rooms were filthy with roaches and bed bugs. They advertised free breakfast and guests can't access the lobby. You have to conduct business through a window outside. This is the worst motel ever. THEY SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN! I was charged one night on 2 rooms and I want a full refund.

All was ok. But the Booking said something for Breakfast and they did not have anything for breakfast and wan not notified prior to my arrival. For that I needed to spend all days something for breakfast to eat.

For paying 600.00 for 3 days, this is the worst hotel we have ever been at. Tears in the blankets, old blood on towels, room stunk so bad, cannot even go in to talk to a person, everything is threw a stupid window. Crap they even hand you the remote for the tv...DO NOT STAY AT THIS LOCATION

The Staff were excellent, however, the property needs some work. Probably can’t do much about the trains sounding off throughout the night, but they could cut the grass, fix the ice machine and fix the keycard system so that the Staff don’t have to let you into the room.

Just ok
Overall mostly clean, quiet, and comfortable. Pillows very flat. Check-in was very slow. Some maintenance issues-- big leak: water dripping heavily through the ceiling above the tub in room 109 when the room above used their shower. Ice machine empty every time I tried to get ice-I mentioned it to staff, came back several hours later, and nothing had been done. Very dated, but acceptable for a night's rest.

It is a very old place that has seen its days. Smoke stains on walls, broken fixtures, very noisy bathroom fan, loose toilet, stained carpet and strong order of cigarettes' in the room and near by while walking in and out. This place may be suitable for certain people, like construction workers, due to economy, location and easy highway access, for those who just need a shower and a clean bed. The bed and the linens were clean and pleasant. I am unable to recommend this place for any families traveling with children.

In the middle of nowhere.
This place is truly in the middle of nowhere Alabama. I stopped here for the night on my way home. This was definitely not my destination. The problem with the location of this hotel is there aren’t any restaurants or convenient stores located anywhere nearby. I had to drive almost 8 miles to the nearest gas station in order to buy snacks for the night. The good thing about this hotel is that it is nice and quiet. For some people it may be too quiet. The service is ok. The bed is nice and soft. You should get a good nights sleep here. The forest and scenery from the hotel is pretty nice to look at as well.

I booked the room with Expedia beforehand & checked in about 7pm. I was surprised to find the price was actually cheaper than i i initially thought i was paying. The next morning i am awoken to maintainace BAMMING on my door (i still have 2.30 hours left ti check out) he says he needs to check the bathroom. I wasnt fully clothed so i asked him to wait. I begin walking into the bathroom & immediately noticed the floor is soaking wet presumably from water running consistently. All of my personal belongings were completely wet. He came in and checked it and said he'd be back later😐so im assuming the problem was known prior to my visit. I decide ti book again for the day thinking I'd just book the same thing. The manager was first VERY UPSET about me even paying the price i paid saying they no longer charged that its not more. I ppaid about $58. (👌great deal) bc it chraged my card 72$ online. So i asked him since my things had gotten wet could i just book it for that same price and mive rooms. He said absolutely not. i want 74$. I reluctantly paid it whice was anout 20 more than i paid they day before. I was then moved to another room. i began to see roaches maybe one or a 2 or first then they started to become more noticeable. Crawling on the pillow & tables. i called housekeeping to come spray my room she did. i didnt make much of a fuss afterwards. I got into the bed after i felt safe enough to. im laying watching my phone. a roach runs across the side of my face

Staff was very friendly. Room was cleaned daily and towels replaced. (We stayed 3 nights). Good location and beautiful view from the hotel. Room was supposed to be non-smoking but had strong stale smoke smell. Washer and dryers were out of service also.

Hello Kailee,] Thank you so much for this kind review. I apologize for the smoke smell. We do our best to rid rooms of smells from prior guests who may have, unfortunately, smoked in our non smoking rooms. However, we're not always completely successful. :) We hope to serve you again soon. Margaret Barnes, Front Desk Manager
