A must read review! My fiance and I, stayed the weekend at Shady Lawn. We rented a king room and were given a room at the very front of the hotel and figured the sound of traffic would not let us rest so we ask to change to a different room on the upper part of the hotel. We were told all that was available was a double bed and all the king rooms were at the front of the hotel which is close to the road. We accepted the double bed room. Without a doubt we were given the worst condition room in the entire place i wanted to cancel my reservation then but knew that it might be impossible to find another hotel with availability so we stayed. The carpet in the room was nasty, stained, had torn places even turned our feet brown on the bottom. We found a fake eye lash stuck on one of the comforters, stained mattress cover, trash in bathroom, ceiling falling and leaking in the closet, the main door would hardly latch and the fact they dont have dead bolts on the door is a little concerning. Mattresses are worn out and beds sit low to the floor. After checking out i noticed a $56 charge to my credit card I called ask why the gentleman was very nice and said it was a fee for changing rooms and he would refund it which he did. It really bothered me they charged my card without my permission so I spoke to the owner and ask for a partial refund because of the condition of the room and he refused. He said you received a discount, NO!! I paid what Expedia advertised!! and a trashy room! Als

Not impressed. Carpet dirty with greasy film. Dirty walls in bathroom. Window a/c with wooden shutter blinds that covered entire window. No privacy for window above a/c inless you close entire wooden shutter - which does not allow for you to have a/c. Curtains were not moveable to cover window either. Had to hang a towel to cover. No dead bolt or security for door - just a twist lock on knob.

Lovely place to stay bad time with Hotels.com

The place is small and quaint. Very clean. The bed just sucked me in and i had an awsome nights sleep. The manager was awsome. Had awful problem getting the money i paid to Hotels.com to pay the hotel. Was able to get part paid and i had to pay the rest. Hotels.com owes me money. The next person that was checking in had the same problem but worse.

This is a small town, but this motel had furnishings like home. Very nice, clean, large bathroom and good shower. But I'm not a fan of window a/c units. And the shutters over the unit... while creating privacy also blocked the air. I would stay here again. Nice quiet town. Couple of good restaurants.

A very clean, convenient place to stay. Everyone was super friendly and went above and beyond. The restaurant next door (owned by the same people) was yummy.
