The garbage truck came at 0200. Took 10 minutes emptying the dumpsters outside of our window. Lots of banging. I understand garbage needs collecting but that much noise at 2am was unnecessary. Difficult time going back to sleep after that. Location close to Broadway so we hadn’t been asleep long after being there.

This hotel was very well maintained and the staff was friendly and helpful when you have questions. You are about a 15 minute walk from Broadway, no matter which direction you go. The Continental Breakfast was awesome and has many items to choose from. Also, if you need a ride, I would recommend Daniel from Acenashville Transportation. He is very well dressed, friendly, personnable and prompt with pick up times and gets you to your destination on time. The hotel can help you with that

I could not tell from the pictures advertised that this was an old converted motel. I spent a lot of money on a roadside motel basically. Walk up outdoor old fashion motel. Room was comfortable. Staff was very accommodating and no concerns there. I just would not have booked this place if I knew what it actually was. Especially for what I paid.
