We weren’t able to stay because the entire property was under construction. Our reservation was never even received by the property, so our arrival was unexpected by them.

It will be better soon. They’re under a major remodel and they’re working hard and tried to accommodate us very much but the room like the floors, drawers microwave were dirty but the beds were new and clean.plus Tally the lobby kitty is very sweet
I had a comfortable stay at The Tally Motel, the owner Rebecca went above and beyond to make sure I had a great time. Will and the other members of staff are all great too.
The motel is dog friendly, Rebecca's and the other staff members' dogs are friendly.
The motel is quiet and relaxing. Will cooked me same tacos, which was great after a long drive. The complimentary breakfast was very nice and set me up for the day ahead and another long drive.
Currently, Rebecca and the Tally Motel team are working hard every day renovating the place for future guests to have a wonderful stay there.
If you're looking for a nice, quiet place within 30 mins of downtown Tallahasee try The Tally Motel.
I look forward to returning and hopefully seeing Rebecca, Will and all the other staff there soon!
Thanks again for a great stay
