On the way to Nashville
One night stay before hitting Nashville. Rooms are done nicely but lacking some general maintenance. Easy parking and there was good Mexican food right there.

We came for a softball tournament and were pleased how easy it was to get from the hotel to the fields! That's also true for the restaurants we We loved our room!! Parking was good. There were places to dine close by and also there was a restaurant across the parking lot! The continental breakfast good, but I would change to larger waffle maker. Would for sure stay there again!

The staff is so sweet and helpful! This is our second time staying here, anytime we plan to go through Tennessee, this is our place! So pet friendly, we just love that there’s a full trail/area around the hotel for pet owners to bring their animals and get their energy out! You can tell how much everyone is enjoying their stay when we got there! There were families enjoying the pool in the rain and everyone was super happy! Stay here if you need a comfortable, affordable, pet safe & friendly place!

Great place to stay for the night!
We stopped here for 1 night to and from a trip to Arkansas. Hotel is older but in great condition. Room was clean, bed comfortable, nothing walking around with more than 2 legs. Breakfast was basic but really good, and the staff were wonderful. There is also a Mexican restaurant on the property, and they were delicious. Would definitely stay here again!

Very nice. Room was clean, staff was pleasant. I would certainly recommend. Normally we never pay attention to hotel breakfast, but because of all the notable mentions in other reviews of gluten free options and how wonderful the breakfast was, we decided to check it out. Yes there were a couple of GF cereals, yogurt and fruit. Not sure if the eggs looking product and sausage were but even if they were since they were touching the toast that could be a problem for most people with gluten issues. All the food labels said they contained bioengineered ingredients so we didn’t end up having anything after all but it did look probably a degree better than the typical generic hotel breakfast option. Enjoy I guess!

The carpet was gross. You had to hold the handle down on the toilet to make it flush. This was room 106. Also there was no ice in the ice machine on first floor or second floor.
