Pleasant Stay during Renovation
The hotel was in the middle of renovation so the fumes were not that great. But there was overall comfort with a Waffle House in walking distance.

8/10 Very good

4-night trip

4/10 Fair

Save your money and stay elsewhere
The hotel is pretty basic and feels very outdated even though the hotel claims that they recently renovated everything. The rooms seemed to have a musty stale smell to them Honestly I’d you are looking for a very basic hotel that offers a bed and nothing more I suppose this is ok. But if that’s the case you can find better for cheaper

Updated hotel
This hotel is finishing up a remodel. We got in one of the new remodeled rooms. Was a nice room. Only stayed 1 night ,thats all we needed it for. Has an outdoor pool, but didn't use. Breakfast was eggs and sausage. Wonderful coffee options. Some rooms have walk in showers. Not far from airport, and easy to find. Several chain restaurants not far either. Porscha was excellent at helping us out!!! Thank you.
