My whole room smelled of a splilled beer, which made sense because when I moved the radio and the lamp on the end table there was stagnant sitting beer. It was very kind of housekeeping to leave us an exploded modelo in the freezer of our fridge as a welcome gift. The AC was musky. Towels a vintage/rustic yellow color. I dont know what continent this breakfast is "Continental" but the unwrapped poptarts and eggo waffles were top notch. Oh, but the apple juice was delicious...nice and cold.

Fire alarm woke me up to the fact that this was the worst breakfast I’ve seen at a place that claims to serve breakfast. The front desk staff was pleasant and helpful about our wonky changes to the reservation. They worked with us and were nice about it.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
A large group came in around 9:30 and was extremely loud. It sounded like revelers and musical slamming doors. After 20 minutes of this disturbance, I phoned the lobby with a barely functioning room phone. I know they heard this ruckus as there were two open stairways to the front desk. They should have intervened much sooner than they did. The noise went on for 45 minutes. At 12:30 am the noise began again. So, not much sleep that night. The "motel" seemed proud of all of their no smoking signs, even on every door. However enforcement obviously was NOT on the agenda The room smelled of smoke and there was cigarette burns on the carpeting of the hallways and stairs. If there were more honest reviews of the problems with this motel, I certainly wouldn't have stayed there. If you want a peaceful and smoke free facility, I wouldn't recommend the Dekalb Super 8 as the place to be.

The overall property was nice, clean and accessible. However I do not recommend staying on the 1st floor. If you do. Prepare to sleep with ear muffs and forget if you have work to do in your room. As some upstairs guest can be very noisy as you hear everything above you. When you tell the front desk. They. Basically tell you to deal with it.
