Very nice and clean, check-in was easy, breakfast ends at 10. There are three to four restaurants in the same shopping area one has a live band. All are feet within the hotel. It also has a patio sitting area and an outside grill for the anyone who wants to use it. The check-out is at 12 for no additional cost! Thats a win for me.

This is a fairly new facility and in good condition. We liked our room, and the bathroom was quite nice. We only stayed one night, so my experience is limited.

This hotel is right on a university campus. Service was wonderful! But overall the condition of the hotel was not great. All of the walls in the hallways were badly scratched from luggage carts and the room furnishings were banged up quite a bit. This hotel is in need of a renovation. But I will reiterate that everyone that worked there was cheery and helpful throughout our stay.

The reception was wonderful. The beds, all room amenities and the shower- all top quality and very clean and attractive. Closet was exceptional. Good coffee available in the lobby, which itself was spacious, with plenty of seating type options, including workstations, and very open and airy.

The stove was dirty in one of the rooms and the refrigerator door had some sort of prints on the front. The breakfast buffet was not great. The taste of the items was not good.

Bed was comfy and the convenience of the kitchen was great. TV did not work, reported but no technician on duty. AC was pathetic, didn’t always stay cool and difficult to figure out to use the hidden wall thermostat and not the one on the unit. Hated the half shower wall. Homeless person begging in front of lobby. I will never go back there.

I can say it had a kitchenette. There was a pull out couch but really not all that impressed. We only stayed overnight to tour the nearby college, luckily. I wouldn’t have been anted to stay another night. The walls are thin. Hope your neighbor doesn’t decide to slam every drawer at 4:00 in the morning. You’ll hear that. People walking above us sounded like elephants. Loud music. Breakfast was good though. A lot of options.

They did not have the double queen bed room we booked. We were given a king w/a pullout couch- super cramped. Not even enough room to walk by when the sofa is out. We tried buying another room, but they were sold out. No extra blankets either. Our son is 6’4” so sleeping on a pull out is not possible. We rearranged sleeping arrangements, but it was not ideal to say the least. Both front desk workers were short & snappy, no help. We didn’t even bother w/the breakfast. Disappointed.

Location

Excellent for Mercer University visits, with the hotel across from campus and near restaurants; downtown is a short drive. Some note the broader surrounding area feels a bit run-down outside the immediate campus zone.
