"Very clean and fresh, things look new and refurbished. Exceptionally well lit at night, very nice and quiet area. The hot water was super fast and the water pressure was the best I've ever seen at a hotel! If passing through I'd happily stay here again."

"No one was on site when we arrived at 11:45. Building was under construction at the time. Had to call a number to get a code to enter the building. Hall way was full of construction materials. Once settled in and finally asleep and resting.. the construction began at 7;00 am. With hammers and banging we were unable to sleep in. Only received approx 5-6 hours of sleep.. had we of known about the building being under construction, we would have stayed somewhere else. The lady present when we checked out was extremely nice, that was the highlight of our stay!"

"This was definitely a budget option (which showed in the condition of the room and the lack of internet or breakfast), but the beds were clean and the room stayed cool overnight. It's also very conveniently located, just off the highway and close to a gas station and a very reasonable diner/family restaurant."

We drove all around and saw all the beautiful bridges of Madison County, and explored the town and park. Clark's Tower was so cool, and everyone was so nice!
