The room had a smoking smell to it. The floors were covered in paint specs, there were no towels when I accessed the room. The air conditioning unit looked like it had been there for decades. I was disappointed, I truly didn’t pay attention to the website. But of course the pictures posted were deceiving as well. Good price though!

I booked at the last minute. I rely heavily on reviews, so I skimmed them rather quickly and chose this location because of its proximity to an event I was attending. Don't let the "drive up" to the hotel deter you; the hotel is just past that rough patch of road that needs to be paved. The hotel is very clean. You can tell they're renovating, which is perfectly fine. The room I stayed in had the softest linens I've ever experienced in a hotel. The bed and pillows were perfect. The ironing board was still wrapped in plastic, and the hairdryer was still in the box. The room was small but clean. The bathroom was small yet clean. It has Delta shower fixtures. I recommend a soap dish. They have a complimentary breakfast counter with a waffle iron that makes the largest waffles, with extra toppings like strawberries and other fruits, plus syrup. I wish they had butter pats, but they didn't. They also serve microwavable breakfast sandwiches, dry cereal, and Simply Fresh OJ! Also, the front desk is monitoring almost 40 different views of the property on their security system. so Hopefully you won't need to recall anything, but just in case. I would definitely stay there again.

It seemed like that staff try really hard to keep the place clean. Since the moment you step in it smells like bleach or pinesol. But the building needs someone with a knowledge about decoration. the hallway carpets are ridiculous and ugly, the tile work in the showers is really bad the flooring in the bedroom's are loose and smells like humidity in the bedroom's.. And you can hear everything, true the walls and the doors.. the place needs some investment. But so far 2 out of 5

Disgusting. Would not give a refund or discount.
The floor was covered in dirt. The walls had blood on them and another had stuff noticeably spilled all down it. The trash can was on bathroom counter. No bag. No soap to wash hands. Smoke alarm was covered with a cloth and then strapped down. WE had to clean the room so we could actually sleep there. Cleaned walls with bleach, swept floor with the broom and dustpan we went and got from front desk. They said they were not authorized to dive a refund or discount. The lobby had stuff spilled all over the floor which was dry and the coffee station had coffee spilled all over the counter. The next day at 10 am the door and the coffee counter still had not been cleaned. They were both directly infront of the check in window which was all glass and the concierge could see both spots. The entire place smelled horrible like curry from the moment the automatic doors opened.absolutely nasty

Property under renovation, I would not stay again.
Well first I had trouble finding it, you had to go to the other side of the road, my GPS kept bringing me to the front of it and it was closed off. 2nd I arrived and checked it, they are still building the location so the place is still being renovated. Third, when I got into the room, the phones did not work and the TV did not work properly, they were still putting in Spectrum. And the elevator did not work, you could look down the shaft to see the elevator shaft (they had it blocked off but that was an issue). The breakfast was waffles that you had to make, small muffins and orange juice that they went and bought from the store. The internet was fast after making a few trip to get the right password. But they tried, you get what you pay for, once they get all the issues worked out, I think it is a nice place.

The area around the properties entrances are surrounded by trash, unkept landscaping, and buildings that look abandoned. The hotel room windows looked dark and old. Then When we arrived at check in, circled the property, there was not one car on the property. The surroundings were so bad we decided not to stay at the hotel!!!!! We felt uncomfortable. We contacted Expedia who says they contacted the hotel and were refused a refund!! Also the pictures of the hotel itself did not look like online. We support small businesses but more accurate pictures of the property and its surrounding should be taken, to help customers make an informed decision. I still want a refund!!!

I wish I could upload pictures to this review to fully demonstrate how terrible this property was. First, it is in an unlit and unsafe area behind the highway. The hotel didn't even have a lighted sign, there's just a banner over the old sign. The property is undergoing renovations and is NOT ready for visitors yet. We were told we were getting a brand new room, which sounded great. When we arrived at our room there was a CHILD (maybe 7-9 years old) cleaning it. The little girl's mom was cleaning another room down the hall and came running when we arrived and got her daughter's lunch and water bottle out of the room. The place was absolutely filthy and disgusting. There was construction dust and debris all over the floor. The door to our room was missing the peephole so there was a HOLE through the entire door! I had to stuff a washcloth in the hole so people couldn't see inside our room! The smoke/fire detector had been ripped off the ceiling. There were wires hanging out of the wall. The bathroom door had a punch hole in it that had been painted over. The curtains were installed backwards. There were cracks and scuffs in every wall. It is very clear that the owner of this hotel rushed the renovations to make rooms available when they absolutely should not have been made available. I'm truly shocked this property is even available on Expedia. Do NOT stay here.

Had a wonderful stay- excellent customer service.
Booked last minute on our way from Indiana to Fort Jackson for our daughter’s graduation from basic training. It’s only a 10 minute drive to the base. The hotel was under construction as the new owners are doing lots of renovations. We stayed 2 nights and had already checked out but our soldier was able to be off base until 6pm and really wanted “just chill” with family and not really go anywhere or be outside. I went back to the hotel and spoke to the owners and asked if we could rent another room for just a few hours, fully expecting them to want to charge me for another night. They were so nice and let us go back into the room we had just checked out of 2 hours earlier, and only charged us a VERY reasonable late check out fee, and told us we could stay until 6pm! We needed to leave at 5pm but we stayed there with our soldier in the air conditioned comfortable room for 4 extra hours! And they didn’t even charge us that much extra! Would 100% stay there again. I was blown away by the kindness and hospitality of the couple who own this hotel.
