We arrived late and left early the next morning so we only interacted with 2 staff members. Both were very nice and accommodating. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. Overall, it was a very nice stay. We will be back in the future.

The staff was super friendly and the room was very clean and comfortable. The only issues we had were both related to plumbing. The hot water was not working and the toliet became clogged when we arrived, after flushing a single tissue.

This property was great. It does show a little age along with some wear and tear, but it is clean, quiet and the staff members were all friendly and inviting. Loved being able to stay here in the town my grandparents lived in for so long.

The hotel staff was very friendly and welcoming. The room was clean and very well maintained. The bed was okay and the pillows were flat. The pool wasn’t clean but for a business trip it was an exceptional place. The town is very quiet and doesn’t offer very much.

The hotel is not really near anything. The room was a little rough in areas and the bathroom was not especially clean. The staff was nice. The parking lot lights outside the hotel weren't working so very dark and worrisome.

Yourcon your own.

First of all, there's nothing wrong with the hotel but the hospitality was wanting!!! My wife and I both have problems sleeping because the pillows were not comfortable. Like other hotelsci went downstairs and asked for a few more. The ladie attending the desks said "We never had anyone ask for xtra pillows"! I said, "First time for everything!" She contacted the manager and they said they didn't have extra pillows. So i drove to the DG down the street and purchased some. Second night i went downstairs and asked for a few towels and washcloths. She said I'd have to bring her my other used towels!! I informed her I've never had a hotel do this either usually just leave them for maid service. She walked with me down the hall to the open laundry room throw them on the pile. I took back 2 towels. I felt like some kinda criminal. Vowed not too come back here again. The correct answer was....treat me like a guest. Ps: Marion, Al. Has few places to eat. You can count olem on your one hand and have digits left over.
