Southern Suites Cartersville

Got off assignment. Room Key wasn't working. No night mgmt available. Had to book another room

My room was decent with a small kitchen, which I liked but minimal kitchen storage. No place to put clothes, no dresser. Or drawers of any type in living area of room. No toilet paper or any basic supplies to get started. Freezer worked well for frozen foods and ice cream.

When we got there the outside of the placed looked like a sketchy rent-by-the-hour motel. The room wasn't much better. There were hairs and stains on the sheets. The bathroom light didn't work. When we got back to the room later than night after they fixed the bathroom light, there was some kind of nasty dirt caked on the toilet seat and there was dirt and debris in the bathtub and all over the bathroom floor. I reserved the room because it had a kitchenette and got there only to discover that they provide no cooking utensils. I had to go out and buy cookware and utensils for us to cook with. I couldn't get the stove to work at first only to find out that there is some kind of timer on the wall that it attached to the stove to make it work that you have to turn on. The only problem is, you have to stand there and keep turning the timer on or else the stove turned off. The only TV that was available was if you had a streaming subscription that you could sign into on the TV. To top it off, the WiFi was completely unsecured. Anyone passing by could connect to the WiFi and I was not comfortable logging on in that situation. We checked out a day early and went somewhere else to avoid staying there any longer. It is definitely worth spending the 30-50 dollars more in that area that you have to spend to not stay in that dive!

Staff was not friendly. The rooms had weird smells. There were cats everywhere!!! The breezeways smelled like cat urine. Inside the room were dead roaches, hair was on the "clean" towels in the bathroom, there was hair in the sinks and bathtub. We didn't even take showers there because it was gross. We literally only slept there, if you want to call it that because the bed was so hard. We showered at our friends house. The money was non refundable and we didn't have funds to book another hotel. This was ridiculous!!!

DIVE MOTEL !! NO FRILLS Overall not terrible. Property has been updated inside the rooms. Outside appearance is kind of sketchy Cheap place to sleep with working A/C
