Staff was rude when we checked in. Acted like we were a bother. Kept saying credit machine wasn’t working even though it kept saying approved. By the time I’d tapped 5 or 6 times I wasn’t sure what I would being charged with. BTW $900 for 3 people 2 rooms 2 nights and 2-12lbs terriers in each room. Only stayed one night cause of all the difficulty, but ate all the 2nd night fees plus room rate. Rightfully so I should have dug deeper on their website to see their unreasonable dog fees and $100 deposit but by the time I got home I’m having to dispute charges because we live 7 hrs away and manager wasn’t available until after 3p. When we could find any staff, no one was friendly or helpful. I was charged for a 3rd night and was charged by hotels.com and the actual hotel. So double tap. Pet fee was outrageous ($27) per night, per pet, per room (never had that before) and a $100 deposit seems a bit of an overreach. They aren’t the Hyatt Regency. Place was clean but in an ugly unkempt and overgrown area. I was very disappointed with the staff’s dismissal of any of our concerns and not being available to talk to me at all. Had to get a janitor to help find staff that could check us out and again no manager. They even stopped and told my 76yr mom if she poured herself coffee in their dining area they would charge. Not offered for free. Sheesh- even Motel 6 offers coffee for free and pets too. Completely UNSAT. Worst experience through hotels.com since I started using in 2012.

First off I'd like to say I'm super picky about were i stay. I booked this place on a whim for 1 night due to heavy traffic and not wanting to drive any further that night and let me just say everything about it was great from the person greeting us at the front desk to the room. The place was spotless, very contemporary decor, quiet, comfortable beds and pillows and ample space in the room.

The hotel had a brand new vibe to it. The staff was really nice and super helpful. The only downside for me was that my room wasn’t clean. It had food crumbles all over the floor (everywhere in the room and bathroom) and even women’s hair glue to the sink. The EV chargers are 3rd party and expensive to use, so nobody plugs in. Everything else was great and I would consider staying here again.

The room was clean and comfortable except the air would not go lower than 67 degrees and I was hot each nite. There is no continental breakfast. No coffee in the lobby. There is a single serve Kuerig in the room but the coffee isn't good so bring your own pods or get up and go to Waffle House close by. The hotel manager works two properties and may be away when you need to check in. It was a good value but that's about it.
