We stayed one night and found the room clean and spacious. I loved the charm of the old building, even though the walls were a bit thin. The sound machine worked wonderfully, and I slept without any issues. I only wish we could have stayed longer. We would definitely stay here again if given the opportunity. From Hoover, AL

The romantic suite is a beautifully designed, well maintained vintage room. We met the hotel manager, who was exuberant and helpful. The view from the room over the quaint downtown was picturesque. Location was good for walking downtown.

I and another quest didn't realize the rooms were names and not numbers. Had to request entrance instructions. The bed was very comfortable and towels were top quality but the toilet paper was super thin... No place to hang clothes. Very irritated having cups, coffee and fridge in the hall... Not as quiet as typical hotel... Definitely not worth the money for a self service hotel...

Clean room and well restored. The hotel is old but has been renovated nicely. One issue is the noise from car/truck and trains. You may want to wear ear plugs to cut out the noise so you can sleep. Too bad, it really is a nice place.

Best Place to stay in Valdosta - drive a few minutes off the interstate and get a much better experience than the chains. Clean, Spacious, Safe, Easy Check-in/Check-out, easy parking, great coffee shop on the first floor and nice restaurants within a few blocks in the quaint and historic downtown - STAY HERE!!

Beautiful place with a charming historic feel. You get a key code emailed to you for entry so it’s very private and simple to check in. It is a wonderful place overall with a coffee shop downstairs that is also wonderful! Güd Coffee! The only downside was the noise of being in the heart of downtown. You could hear everything on the street and vehicles going by all night. I’m a light sleeper so maybe others wouldn’t mind as much. They do have ear plugs complimentary!! :) definitely a place you should check out!
