The hotel representatives were excellent and very hospitable. I have a very large group and the staff were very helpful and patient while we sorted our rooms. The rooms were clean. Some of the rooms did not have soap and we had to request extra towels but overall a good stay.

This place is an absolute disgrace. A very very dirty place. I am curently attending a conference/class meeting here through my company. I have drove over 8 hrs and booked this place online (which looks decent online but is horribly deceiving) and have not talked to anyone in our seminar class who is happy, including our instuctor. The "hot breakfast"... More

We recently stayed here with a large group. The staff was professional and helpful, and the accommodations are a great value. I would encourage tour groups going to EWTN to consider this property. Some of the rooms are a bit dated, but for the price, the quality is just fine, particularly with the helpfulness of the staff.

We only needed a room for one night and took a chance on this one since the price was so reasonable and it was very near the airport (which we wanted for an early morning flight). First, the hotel is a little hard to find as it is tucked off the main road. Got to the lobby which looked nice,... More

The hotel is in an excellent location at the edge of Irondale. The area is quite safe even if some of the surrounding area appears a bit run down.
