Pulled in around 9:00PM on my way further south. I seek out Best Western and this one was immediately off I-95. The night front desk clerk was friendly and very welcoming. Room was clean and comfortable. Hot breakfast was also available. The only negative is I think the eggs were fake..... Everything else on the table was great..... Cereal, bagels,... More

While the room was clean and nice, the hot breakfast was good, this hotel in no way represented a 4 Star rating and was a little over-priced. At best this was a $79.00 room. Would not stay there again.

Hotel was very clean and the staff was beyond pleasant. We stopped about midnight, about the midpoint to our destination, and "settled" for something cheap to sleep in for a few hours... And to my surprise, this was one of the better hotels we have stayed in! Compared to the Merriott and Hilton hotel chains we usually stay in, it... More

Nothing wrong with the hotel but it is not a $100 a night place as we paid. I'm guessing probably built in the 70's to 80's. Outdoor entrances, located in a high traffic, somewhat noisy area. Trash truck stopping at restaurant next door woke us up at 4:45 AM. Would have stayed elsewhere for less except for the fact that... More

Motel is your average Best Western, that is clean and comfortable. We were very disappointed with the breakfast. I don't expect sausage and gravy to be watered down and tasteless. This is the South. I would have rather have eaten at Micky D's. This was the poorest breakfast ever at a Best Western. The continental at Microtel on the return... More

On our way to FL from MI. Needed a place to stay for one night and chose the Best Western. Clean room, friendly staff, convenient to restaurants and a good value. The motel is conveniently located off of I-65. We were up and on the road early after a nice free breakfast. We would stay here again.
