Staff was very pleasant. The room was clean. The bed was not very comfortable. The room was quiet out dated. This is a good place for a one night stop and flop.

Room was clean, staff was friendly and helpful. Just the room was a little smaller than I imagined and the bathroom set up was less than ideal.

Very convenient location right off the 8 & the 5 in Hotel Circle, so reasonable distance to everything. Room is very basic and clean. Remodeled bedroom portion of the room, but bathroom and sink area are definitely dated. However, for the price, a great deal and well worth it if you're on a budget. Great big outdoor pool area and big hot tub. The breakfast place/waffle house attached to the hotel is great, and not to be missed!

We were able to check in early and was even upgraded from a one King bed to a 2 Queens. Every employee there was kind and eager to help. Food at the Waffle Spot was fresh and full of flavor. Will 100% come back again and will recommend to my friends and family. Additionally, the whole place was clean and I saw 0 pieces of trash around. Really great establishment you have :)
