Room was clean and updated. Hotel has a unique layout, as it used to be a motel, I believe, and still has some of those characteristics. It was loud at night due to the concrete walkway right outside our door. Breakfast area has a nice setup with great variety. Parking fees are annoying, but they are everywhere in this part of town. I would stay here again, but my expectations were a bit too high, possibly.

I looked at pictures before booking and when I got there it wasn’t anything unexpected.. first off it like a motel style the rooms are entered from outside.. the room was clean but it was just ok my wife absolutely hated the bed it was uncomfortable. The breakfast was the same everyday.. stopped going after the second morning of my four night stay.. I have to say they have a great staff everyone was great! But i would overall never stay there again..

CUSTOMER BEWARE!! I am still trying to receive a refund for overcharged parking. I noticed an excessive charge on my credit card statement and for the last three weeks have made numerous phone calls to both the hotel and PMC parking with no results. I am getting the “run-around.” I have a feeling they do this to all customers, hoping they don’t notice the excessive charge.

I stayed in their newest building (Units ending 27 or higher, ex., I was in 428) and it was a really nice space, was clean and modern, bed was comfortable. The included breakfast on the 2nd floor was pretty similar to mid-tier hotel brands, I particularly enjoyed their bacon (not over or undercooked) and it was never close to running out of anything, the breakfast attendant was really on top of it. Front desk was kind during a very stressful time (Winter Storm Fern), valet was responsive. It was a really good experience and I would recommend it to others. Also super convenient to everything downtown, I had pizza at Roberta's a block away and BBQ at Puckett's two blocks away and they were both very good, easy walk to both.

Once I got over that this is a motel with some hotel amenities (valet, bar/restaurant), it was fine. The room looked new and was warm (stayed during ice storm). The staff was really great too. I didn’t love that any time a valet or housekeeping cart rolled by it sounded like a Sherman tank coming through the wall. But for the price it was fine.

Poor customer service and untrustworthy! I was lied to and overcharged for parking. I called prior to booking to ask if they charge for parking. I was told they do not charge for parking. So I chose to book here instead of a hotel only 5 miles away where parking is free. Then when I arrived I was told I would be charged an outrageous amount per day for valet parking and that there was no self parking option. They told me to contact the manager by email, but I never received a reply or a resolution. I was forced to pay for parking access for two days, but instead of the amount they told me I would be charged, the actual bill to my credit card was even higher. I will never rebook at a hotel I can't trust with my credit card, and especially not one that lies just to get people to book.

This is a no-frills hotel that shows its age. Water pressure was very low, and the plumbing made loud squealing noises during showers. Access to the elevator requires going outside the lobby, which felt inconvenient and somewhat unsafe. The bed frame was very squeaky, and sound traveled easily through the walls due to poor insulation. The restaurant/bar was empty with zero customers.
