Poorly maintained property. Missing toilet paper spindle, black material on floor of bathroom. Some bugs present. Overly expensive on football weekend. Minimal soap and shampoo for two people.

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.

The room was not a clean room and had water on the floor in the bathroom. Was not worth the $245 a night price even if it was during Alabama’s graduation weekend. Why are hotels allowed to raise prices for special weekends?

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 Rooms are a little outdated but the linens are clean, the air conditioners work great and are loud enough to drown out the major thoroughfare.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.

When I checked the sheets before actually bringing our stuff in I noticed the sheets were very dirty. We ended up just sleeping on top of the blankets because the sheets were dirty. Also the booking was for 4 people and was only given 2 towels. Housekeeping did not come to the room at all while we’re there for 3 days.
