It’s a decent property. The walls are very thin so noisy if you have noisy neighbors. It’s clean but very dated. There was a sewer smell coming from the sink. The breakfast buffet included eggs and sausages, 2 waffle makers, cereal and breads.

We stayed here for one night driving up to Georgia, place was ok GREAT BREAKFAST, however, i had my PSA dog with me and was told i had to wait outside of Lobby that he wasnt allowed, which clearly means they are not up to date/informed with ADA regulations..i tried my Best to politely explain and show them the ADA laws and my pet’s documentation but nonetheless, they were extremely rude with me about the whole thing. I was not happy and very dissappointed :(
