The room's were excellent and very clean. The staff are the definition of excellence, no attitude just an appetite to serve. I worked at this hotel 45 years ago and was nervous about the condition of the rooms, cause they were in bad shape back then, but the money invested in remodeling resulted in an excellent and comfortable stay. I've stayed in worse and paid twice as much, will definitely stay there again.

It was nothing special, and the cable and internet only worked intermittently, but it was clean, and I felt safe. It was graduation week for University of Mississippi, and the price was MUCH more reasonable than anything else around.

My noise complaint is more with the town of Pontotoc than the hotel. It sounded like half the population of 6,000 people own loud trucks. And I had an inside room.

Everything was pretty good. The bed was a little bit hard, but I like it that way, but there was no coffee pot in the room and I like to have my coffee but other than that, it was good.

No fire evacuation plans posted on the door. No hand towels in bathroom. Had to ask for one. 1 bar of soap and 1 small tube of shampoo. Floors were dirty. Queen size bed on top of a full size foundation. Shower curtain brackets that holds the rod were very loose. Shower head was small and to low where you had to bend your head backwards to wash your hair.
