Upon arriving at the Hotel, I was quite a bit skeptical about staying. The outside wasn't much to look at and there is one of those rent by the week places behind it. All in all the service and staff were great. The inside is a whole lot easier on the eyes, than the outside. Pool was nice and clean. Only problem, was the fact that the other place overlooked the pool.
Stayed here a few weeks ago. Clean. Spacious. Housekeeping is amazing. Some of the morning shift are rude, depending on the day. There's one lady who works night shift... She is awesome. Goes above and beyond... The drink machine was broken and she actually had someone go to the store.
Neil at the front desk was very helpful and very accommodating. Neil also gave us a great deal on rates because we were from out of town and coming in to stay because our son was graduating boot camp at Fort Benning. My family and I are very appreciative of what he has done for us and for our friends who came with us. The rooms were very nice and the price was perfect. Better than I expected. I would definitely recommend to any on a budget and wants a good clean place to stay. Thank you again Neil for your great customer service.
Michelle and Raj gave great service during my week stay while I had to attend interview at Columbus State. Thank you Michelle and Raj!
We stayed here 5 days and enjoyed our stay. The room was larger than most hotel rooms and the people were very helpful especially the manager. Breakfast was simple but adequate & the beds were comfortable. The price was readonable. We will stay here again on our next trip.
I work there and I see great improvements by the new owner. New carpet, new paint and curtains, and more improvements coming. There is NO BREAKFAST anymore though. Only coffee in the lobby and coffee pots in every room. The pool has a beautiful new look and there is a beautiful fountain added near the pool. The management is very flexible and nice and we pice match! So check with us before you reserve online. We will give you the lowest online price! So many things to do and see around the area! We are definitely the Best Value Inn and Suites in the area! Come see.

My five star rating is not based on this being a five star hotel, it's based on being a five star value. It's an older hotel it's always gonna look like an older hotel. But the rooms and the lobby have been remodeled and are very nice and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The prices Excellent! Thank you for a great place to stay at a great price.
