Great hotel, doors are kind of hard to push open

Great clean little hotel, only complaint is that the door to the Gym/laundry room gets a little bit of foot traffic and due to the door kind of needing a little force to push open (my hotel room door also took some force to close all the way) it makes a very startling noise every time it opens. It’ll startle the bejesus out of you if you’re working out in there.

This is a good place to stay. The staff is helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. There are several eating places nearby, including a Waffle House across the street. My only criticism is that the kitchen needs more dinnerware and utensils.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Bathroom shower curtain was torn and dirty. Window curtains were stained. Bedding did not fit the mattress. Coffee pot had burnt or black mold on the bottom making it unusable. Floors were sticky and not clean. Overall, we needed a place to stay so it was sufficient. I would not recommend unless everything else is booked and you have to get a place to stay.
