Our stay here was amazing after getting another hotel and not being happy we went to the sleep inn and it was a whole different experience. Breakfast is pretty good here too eggs,sausage,waffles and biscuits and gravy. The staff here was very accommodating and clean. I was told before I came to bring 100 for deposit and got it back just like I was told at the end of my stay. Loved this place and they offer a smoke spot in parking lot for the smokers as well

The A/C was not working, not cooling at all was changed twice for the same reason. Was offered a third room which was worst than the first one. Decided to go back to the first room since it felt a bit cooler (72) not my ideal temperature at all. Breakfast was cold, biscuits where frozen solid, overalls I give a 0 for the breakfast. The only thing I can say it was nice was the employees. My first and last time I will ever book a stay at this hotel. Sadly paid too much for what I received!

When we arrived to room was about 90 degrees in there so I turned on the unit and went about my day, couple hours later it cooled down some but not comfortable, so we were told to wait again to see if the room would cool down, we arrived back at the hotel and the room was still hot, my husband went downstairs to see if could switch to another king size room but they wouldn't do it so they put us in a room with two beds in it when we paid for the king size room.

Good for the price

The staff here are great and funny. Everyone was so nice. We stayed for a couple of nights to visit family and picked here because of the price point. The room was spotless, but very small for a family of four. I'm sure we could have moved rooms, but the office person said it was an upgrade. The AC is weak, so we had to leave it at 63 to cool down. It was supposed to be a non-smoking room, but it smelled of smoke. The area is good for being close to the interstate and places to eat. We didn't have time to check out the pool or the breakfast. Plenty of well-lit parking. The room is only good for two people and not any more. We will pay a little more to stay somewhere more comfortable, but the staff is the best thing here.
