Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
I had not stayed at a low end property in a while. Had to stay because nothing else was available. Amenities like bed, towels, toiletries etc were low end/ worn.
Had I not been with 3 grown men I would have stayed in my own vehicle. Very nasty and rude staff. It’s the worst motel I have stayed in. And will be leaving reviews in places more people can see

It was your average Econo Lodge. If you're in a bind, it works. This one is older, a little run-down (no lampshades, leaky a/c) with questionable stains (floor, bed cover, furniture) but I had to remind myself it's the Econo Lodge. I didn't feel unsafe and the towels seemed clean and the water was hot but it definitely could use a makeover.
Definitely not worth $100 a night, bathroom was dirty, cigarette burns in the pillow cases (in a no-smoking room) and there was rotting greens in the mini fridge
My TV wasn't working.My refrigerator wasn't working people hanging outside my door

Great service. Not great room.
Room was non smoking but smelt like smoke and all the bed linens had cigarette holes in them and discoloration. Towels were discolored. Was an accessible room and I almost slipped on the flooring multiple times just wearing socks. Bathroom had hair and dead beds all over the floor, counter, and shower floor. Appliances in the room were discolored and dirty and looked like they would start an electrical fire. Zero plugs to charge a phone except in the bathroom were free for use. Could not get comfortable and was afraid to sleep in the covers. Parking lot stayed well lit however many cars came in and out throughout the night where guests and non guests just lingered in the lot chatting. Felt very unsafe. Staff however were very friendly both in the evening and in the morning and I wish the room reflected the same.
My partner and I love this hotel. The staff is super friendly and always accommodating and it is tucked away and quiet. Water is hot, beds are comfortable and WiFi works very well for my firestick. Highly recommend!
Great stay! Will be using them again! Rooms are clean and housekeeping does an excellent job of changing out trash daily, providing clean towels daily and making the bed daily.
First time in Alabama so i did not know this establishment was worse than a motel 6. I think i would have been safer at a motel 7. There was handprints and blood on our bed and walls. I thought it was a joke at first. It’s the worse place i have ever stayed at. It was only for one night because we left the second night. I would not ever come back- even if it was free. The establishment was worse the one can imagine. Roaches, blood on wall, handprints on bed, holes on wall, fridge was leaking. And when we walked outside - someone offered to pay for sex. I nearly ran home.
