Um, cleaner would be better

Non-smoking hotel, which is fine as we do t smoke. Get to our room and the bathroom smelled STRONGLY of cigarettes. The smoke detector appeared to be working but was dangling from a wire several inches below the ceiling, not flush. And there was a large dead bug on the carpeted floor.

We enjoyed the hotel for the quick overnight stay. We wished it could have accommodated a pool given the hot summer in Memphis in August.

Great room for the price. Breakfast was pretty good (just need gravy for the biscuits in the future lol). The room we had was 2 queens. The sheets were nice, bed was comfortable, and 4 pillows felt amazing. I had been using holiday inn, but gen x is probably my new go to!
