The hotel was nice but the bathroom and shower are small. They get the job done though and the breakfast was great. I wished they'd had grits on the menu and was looking forward to a hot bowl but everything else was excellent.

Check in was quick and easy, love having an EV charger in the parking lot for our car. Property was clean, needs a few touch ups here and there, but overall it met our standards for pit stop along our trip.

Disliked: Amenities
Front desk was very friendly and room was clean. Backside of hotel is a large semi parking area that had trucks coming and going all night. The air conditioning would not cool to set temperature so room was a little warmer than we would prefer so between that and the truck traffic, sleep was not good. Had the feel of a remodeled Motel 6. Sink was in the main area not in the bathroom and very strange light switch positions. Due to inability to sleep, we left before breakfast was served. Coffee in lobby was the worst we had ever had. Was a little concerned when we saw so many 10/10 ratings and many appeared very similar. Many appeared AI generated. Would not stay again or recommend especially at that price point.

Booked through Expedia and they have this hotel listed as a 4 star hotel with great reviews but it’s more like a 1 star hotel. Room smelled like urine, carpet was frayed, walls were dirty. I prepaid for the room and front clerk was unable to give me a refund.

Staff was very friendly. Front desk clerk took the time to explain how to access the WiFi, breakfast hours, and which restaurants in the area offered a discount for showing your room key. Breakfast was good, I had a nice hot waffle, egg and coffee. Room was clean, bed was comfortable, and plenty of free channels on the large TV. Very quiet, did not hear any noise from the other rooms.
