Excelente experiencia
Súper bueno, muy limpio y cómodo. Tuvieron consideración por ir con dos niños pequeños y me dieron una habitación cerca del parque, del parqueo y en primer piso. El desayuno muy rico y con variedad de alimentos todo exquisito y limpio. 100% recomendable.

2/10 Poor

Horrible isn't strong enough
I would definitely drive pass this one, the front desk person that worked the night shift was useless, had people above us that jumped , ran around sounded like they were playing basketball, went to the office to ask for help, door was locked couldn't call, phone didn't work, after a night of no sleep all I wanted was a hot shower, but no lukewarm at best,

Ehh..ok
I guess the place is ok. Customer service is lacking, the beds are hard and the pillows SUCK! The bathroom was dirty you could they NEVER sweep behind the bathroom door as there was a decent size spiderweb. The shower still had hair in it. If the price is UNDER 100 for the nite it would work.

Staying in the Smart Stay inn
I was not aware that the hotel was an animal friendly and the breakfast room seems to be small because was too crouder. Overall was good. It did not meet my expectations for the price.

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 :(

Be wary of excellent customer ratings
By far, my worst checkin experience ever. 45 minutes to get a room . I had a reservation. Room door locking mechanism appears to be installed upside down. Otherwise, room was nice. Very comfortable bed. Room very clean. Could not get the coffeemaker to work.
