I liked this place. It has very clean rooms and bedding and linens are not shabby torn or work out. The room is very well put together and you wouldn't think from being inside that you were in a small place. The owners were very nice and helpful. Noon checkout if asked and really good crunchy ice. I love me some cold ice to chew on. Pet friendly and not allot of riff raff or traffic. Across from a store for convenience and overall good time. Mom and pop style spot
It is a small motel in a town with less than 5000 people. The owners and staff are friendly and kind. The rooms are clean and nice. If you find a problem be or need something you call the desk and withen a very short time they are there helping you. I would recommend this motel to anyone who enjoys the small southern town feel.
Listen folks this place is no Marriott courtyard hotel but if you are looking for a clean , economical motel in a pretty good place then I suggest this one.My wife and I have spent many nights here because we come to Elba for deer hunting... I would recommend the establishment to my fellow hunters and anyone else needing a room for a good price.oir room has always been clean and there's no prostitute or drug deals going on at night so that's a plus.the staff is very friendly and have been super accommodating for is,give them a try and I don't think you will go away disappointed
There is certain comfy at this hotel . I myself love room 102 . You would think your at a Hilton. They keep it super clean and no bugs!! I would recommend them anytime. Plus a store within a skip to. The owners are laid back and chill. They don't harass you and always available for locked out rooms, towels, etc.etc. Go you'll see it for yourself and awesome pricing $55 a night. I think the other Patel group should follow his example and quit being such a jerk to us Americans.
Stayed there over night while traveling. Had a terrific experience. Staff was great, room was clean and everything worked. Rooms are a little worn, but not shabby. And for the price it was a good deal. Would stay again and recommend a friend to also.
