The staff was friendly and the room was clean. We needed a place to stay for a Bama football game and this place was perfect for the price.

Staff courteous. Old hotel that needs some updating (painting, appliances that work, etc.,), but for the price you get what you get.

excellent Spartan room
A clean, well-lighted place. My one issue was solved immediately and with courtesy. I will stay there again, if I go to the same conference next May.

I was looking for a clean room and good bed and AC for a few days and it fit perfectly. Tv was a little small but it didn’t really matter.

Very clean. Staff was cordial and helpful. Bed was hard as a rock but slept well second night. No USB plug in entire room. Think 1980 decorum. TV, Refrigerator, Microwave... Convenient.

Clean, Friendly & Budget Conscious!
Granted, it is an older property, but it is also very budget friendly. The room was quite spacious and suited our needs perfectly. Definitely worth taking a look at if you were budget conscious and just want something that is clean and in a good location. Front desk service was very congenial with our late check in. Friendly staff.

Almost everything I can hope for in a budget minded hotel. Comfortable room, good AC, nice TV with DirecTV, good water pressure and plenty of hot water, quiet, no bad smells in the room, comfortable bed with nice bed coverings and pillows. Only small negatives - room was clean and swept but floor could have been mopped a little more and no ice machine. But would happily stay there again.

Don’t try to save a buck staying here
We were put in a terrible room in the back corner with a view of old toilets. The a/c wasn’t on. The door didn’t fit you could see light all the way around it. There was dirty underwear behind the bathroom door. Mattress was terrible. I just left. I msg the hotel and they did offer to switch me but I was already out. They could keep my money. Why put a person in such a room to begin with. The upside the staff was very friendly

For a Budget inn and the price, it is a good deal. Rooms are a little outdated but the linens are clean, the air conditioners work great and are loud enough to drown out the major thoroughfare. Clean property, friendly staff and safe and secure.

The room was ok. It was clean but dated. Paint peeling from the door frame and the tv wasnt working. The beds are stiff and the walls are thin. It was ok for somewhere to sleep for the night.
