Thank you
More of a Motel feel, but was very clean, comfy bed, decent breakfast, and 55-65 inch tv in bedroom.
Negative thing would be accessing the place from the busy road and having to do a U-turn to access.

The (big) street intersection close to the property is under construction so it is a mess, but the property was a solid place to spend the night while traveling. The grounds were nicer than most Best Westerns, the room was clean, the breakfast was good and the manager was nice. We were not expecting anything fancy. It was a good value and we would stay there again.

Nice stay
Our stay was very nice. Rooms real clean and nice. The mattress was great (slept like a baby both nights). Only, not really complaint is when we first went in it did have a funny smell. Overall I will be staying here again when I go to see a Bama game. RTR!!!

We had a problem with the air conditioner & were promptly moved into a different, convenient room; much appreciated. Breakfast was nice; enough variety & hot foods were warmed, cold kept cold. Everything else was decent. It’s close to family, too, so we will return.

My third motel is 3 days, this is the best! Perfect size for a single person for an overnight stay! (Or a couple) I'll be in the area again in a few months and definitely return here.
