First and foremost, the older gentleman who tends the front desk at night is a star. Pleasant and well mannered. Prior to booking online I called this hotel to inquire about an up-front deposit and he had no problem explaining and reassuring. Upon checking in at 8pm he processed us quickly and even took the time to explain everything to us. Huge difference from what my wife and I experienced at other locations.
I was a little skeptical about this hotel given the negative reviews, so I’m incredibly surprised with how excellent this property really is.
Breakfast is simple, but that’s okay. Coffee and a muffin is more than enough to get your day started. Our room was clean, didn’t have an odor and quaint. Beds are a little firm, but they’re made with clean linen and comfortable. AC will freeze you out. The shower was nice and hot. Plenty of towels for two people. The TV is not some off the shelf ROKU trash, so catching last nights football game was a nice bonus.
My wife and I drove 30 hours to get to Miami, with a quick 2 hour stop for a little shut-eye in the car, so I can tell you right now this is night and day. I’d stay at this hotel even if it wasn’t a “late night, zombie mode, I need a place to stay I don’t care what.”
