Staff is always friendly, rooms clean, grounds maintained nicely. It is a perfect halfway point for us traveling between homes and we know we can rely upon this property to rest stress free.
The staff was very friendly and helpful but the rooms were horrible. Sat on the bed and heard every metal spring in it and then felt them when laying down. They were much smaller than they looked in pictures and very run down. We ended up checking out the next morning even though we had already prepaid.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The staff checking me in was informative and kind. In the room the mirrors were dirty the dresser was broken the lamp shade was breaking apart. The refrigerator ran all night making noise.
Was a quick stop for the night. I was very happy with the cleanliness of the facility. The lobby, room and parking lot were all clean and well lit. Had a very restful night and breakfast hit the spot in the morning before I took off to finish my trip. The staff was very friendly. I’d definitely stay here again! Great value for the price!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Air conditioning was minimal, tub did not drain well, breakfast was blah. The staff were friendly, check in was quick, and the room was clean.
The hotel is definitely an older hotel that has been remodeled. Nothing fancy. Breakfast was pretty good, they do need to improve on keeping it stocked. Overall, it was fine for the price. Not great, but fine.
Rooms: we got the king room on the 1st floor. The bed was super comfortable, great pillows, and very clean. The shower was great, really good pressure, also super clean, and a nice set up for shampoo, conditioner and body soap, (on the wall and not those little hard to use ones). Parked right out front our door!
Service: fast, easy, and super helpful when I locked myself out... shout out to the 7pm, July 29th lady.
Location: less than a mile from I24 just west of Huntsville, AL. Interestingly, the exterior looks like the old Hotel 8 feel... I wasn't really sure how it would work out. Just down the road was a $200/ night place. We got this for $100 completely last min on a road trip. I'm really glad we gave them a chance. The breakfast was good, too.
Thanks for a very restful stay on a long road trip.
