The room was clean the bathtub would not drain and shower curtain rod was broken but still usable ( it held the shower curtain up)
Owner ran my card multiple times, charged and reversed multiple times, tying up over $300 for a75 dollar room, and came to me after checking in asking for a $20 pet charge that was not advertised. Other staff and property was fine.
Got to the property at 3 pm and the front desk staff said they had to check to see if the room was cleaned. Not sure why if check in is at 2 pm. Then I was given a key to a room with 1 bed when my reservation was for a 2-bed room. Called the front desk and they said I needed to pay more for the 2-bed room, even though I booked the room online. Bed sheets were covered in, what appeared to be, dog hair. Shower handle was missing so we had to change the water temp with a screw. Toilet seat wasn’t even the correct size for the toilet. Of course the pool wasn’t filled either. We couldn’t stay the third night, this hotel was so terrible.

Sparta TN
No amenities. No breakfast. No coffee pot. Bed kinda funky.
Comfortable bed and secure rooms. Could be cleaner. Failed the white sock test. Their website stated voffee maker in each room but there is none. When approaching the front desk about it they just shook their head and shrugged their shoulders.
My husband is handicapped and the staff seeing this offered to help me get my things into the room. There is plenty of places to eat around it and the Fairgrounds is very close to the motel.
All around comfortable stay for the money.
