I was pleasantly surprised with this property! The room was clean, the staff was friendly, and we had no issues!
The room was updated and clean. The bed was comfortable, lots of hot water for the shower. Room AC was adequate. The reception room was used as a storage area so did not present well. The path to our room was cluttered with extra worn out chairs and tables for the staff to use the owner said. This did not present well and made us uncomfortable. Thank goodness the room served us well and we got a good night sleep.

Easy check in. Sheets and towels were clean as well as the room. We stay here anytime we are in barnwell. The only thing i dislike is housekeeping banging on the door at 10:30-10:45 when check out isnt until 11.

Room was comfortable. For the price and what we needed it met our expectations. AC could use an update. Bed was comfortable.
Room was clean. Area fairly quiet. Disappointed that there was no breakfast. The pictures of the property showed a breakfast area. That was a deciding factor in choosing this location. Photos should be updated

Room was clean and maid service was good. Facility is dated. Coffee used for in-room coffee maker was very weak and generally not very tasty.

Nice but needs work
There was nothing exciting about the motel. The front desk staff was great. The room itself was clean but needed updating. We found that the pillow cases hadn't been changed so we bought new sheets and pillowcases for the bed not knowing whether the rest was cleaned.
Pricing is good. It's close to a few places to eat. Staff is friendly. The building is old and the rooms could use some updating. The biggest complaint was that when we got to the room at 330pm, the A/C was not on at all. So it was warm in the room, approximately 85°. So we turned in the A/C on and set at 65°, when we returned at 930pm. The room was cioler but not cold.
Stayed here ine night after packing a moving truck in 100 degree weather, prior to driving to AL the next day. I called to make sure the air was turned on in the room. The manager told me he would gladly go turn it on for me. The room was very comfortable when we arrive.
Two of my daughters and their husbands stayed two nights. We all requested to be near each other and they were able to put us in three rooms side by side.
Manager and wife were both very friendly.
Overall, this hotel was basic but perfectly fine for the area. The room was quiet, which was a plus. The mattress was definitely on the firmer side, but the linens were surprisingly nice and comfortable. Towels were pretty basic and smaller than expected, but usable.
The check-in process after dark was a little unusual — you ring a doorbell from outside and staff handle everything through a glass slot in the door. It felt a bit odd at first, but it worked.
There aren’t a lot of hotel options in town, and for what it was, this place was clean, quiet, and did the job. I would stay there again.
The rooms need to be renovated. I booked for non smoking and was giving a smoking room upon arrival. Blankets had burn holes in them, tv was defected, guests next door was smoking marijuana with the door open.
