Not great.
When I arrived there were no friendly smiles at the reception desk. I got checked in easy enough, though. When I went to my room, it looked okay. But, on one bed I was sitting it felt like there was dirt and dust crumbs. It could have been from the ceiling since it was that popcorn stuff, or it could have been from a person that had a cat and it would have been kitty litter. So I went into the other bed, which was better. But, the place smelled like urine. Not fun. No breakfast like I was hoping. But, I may have gotten it mixed up with another hotel. Overall, I probably won't stay there again.

If I could give zero stars I would. There were dead roaches in the floor. Walls disgusting. Pillowcases disgusting. Smelled awful. I was offered another room, and even after speaking with Hotels.com was only given one nights refund but I was not staying there. Hotel said it was hotels.com policy not to refund me and then hotels.com said it was the hotels. Either way I still haven't gotten my refund of one night and was very inconvenient to have to find another hotel such short notice in a SEC game weekend. Wouldn't recommend EVER!

Although the clerks were a bit rude, but for the price this hotel has, it is quite decent.

It was reasonable quiet given that it's located near an interstate. The room was very clean and reasonably updated. I loved my long, hot shower.

There was a cockroach crawling on the wall, you could see outside even with the door closed. The bed was not comfortable almost as hard as the floor. I would not stay here again no matter the price. The night rate was the only perk unfortunately.
