Needs improvement

For over $200 per night, this place needs a major rehab especially the rooms. The front lobby area is cute and the breakfast was great! The younger women who checked us in was indifferent borderline rude but the older woman who checked us out was friendly. The pool area was clean and my kids loved it.

Front desk personnel exceptionally attentive and efficient. Breakfast was buffet that was fine and on par with other hotel breakfasts. The rate was far too high in my opinion and I am not in favor of paying high rates just because 'they can' get them. bed comfortable and no complaints. Room appeared to be clean but is quite outdated. Bathroom with lots of rough edges as well as front door with openings at bottom. Doesn't take much to install weather strip around door I wouldn't think. Fairly peaceful nights sleep except for the A/C compressor (I assume) loudly bumping off and on at times. All in all I probably would stay there again if the rate was more reasonable. As it is I would be content to drive straight through to where I will be going frequently rather than get gouged.
Rough edge bathroom-
Potential for bugs doesn't bother me but paying premium for this does

The staff was very pleasant. Started out meeting the front desk who claimed that she was personally watching the parking lot thru video cameras all night. Made me feel safe about our car not getting broken into. In the morning i met Barbara the cook in the dining room. What a rare gem she is... This was my first time encountering Grits. When i asked her what this food is, she described her process of washing it a minimum of 9x, add salt, butter, and just a little sugar, cook 30 minutes. The breakfast buffet, which is complimentary eggs, bacon, sausage and gravy, biscuits, grits, bagels, bread, juices, fruit, and so much more was not only free but a better breakfast then we had been paying $25 a person at Wyndam resorts. The only negative comment i have is the room smelled musty, my belief is the is caused by a poor bathroom fan not pulling the moisture out of the room.

Nice older motel. Very well maintained. Comfy bed. Very friendly helpful staff. Only reason I didn’t give it a perfect score was the old stinky carpet in the room.
