When I booked the hotel the site said parking was free. When i went to check out they charged be 60.00 for 3 days even though everything i looked at said free parking. The rates advertised said free parking. I feel i was taken advantage of. As a senior living on a budget every penny counts i could have chosen somwhere else for less. I would appreciate you addressing it with Southern Oaks. Nice place but feel let down.

Clean, comfortable

We needed a place to stay with our dog for one night while we were moving from one house to another. The check in was easy, and it was helpful that you can check in until 2 am since we were busy packing til late. Very clean, comfortable room, and they even had a doggie bed and bowls for our dog. They offer breakfast but we were in a hurry so we didn’t stay for that. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

The people were very friendly here. When we checked in with our yellow lab, they put us on a second floor room with no elevator and having a crate did not work for us when I went to the office they did accommodate us and put us on a first floor room. The breakfast is very scarce. It would have been nice to have packs of grits or oatmeal and more variety. There was no danish or muffins only toast and bagels. The $20 per night fee for parking was outrageous for an old hotel like this.
