The parking area is clean and well maintained. There is an inner courtyard: a green inviting space with a pool and a gazebo. The hallways and our room had an unpleasant chemical cleaner odor. The breakfast was lacking: the yogurt from a dispenser was too runny, the white bread from a bag was of the lowest quality, the eggs and sausages were okay; orange juice did not taste good.

This was a one night stop on our way to Blue Ridge GA. It was clean and convenient to I75. Glad it was pet friendly. The $20 pet fee wasn’t horrible compared to others. Limited green spaces to walk my dog. Would stay there again.

I was greeted pleasantly after arriving later in the evening. The room was decent for a quick overnight stay. The food options around are basically just an Applebee's but that worked for some quick apps before retiring for the night. This was a quick stay over in route to traveling to another destination, so it served its purpose. The complimentary breakfast wasn't too appealing, so I only opted for yogurt out the machine and a tangerine.
