What guests think

At Southern Belle Inn, guests describe a budget‑minded stay in a small, quiet town, with generally clean rooms and a simple setup that shows its age, making it a practical base rather than a polished, modern hotel.

Service is a strong point, with many praising welcoming, accommodating staff. Rooms are dated—sometimes musty or noisy due to thin walls—but several guests found them spacious, and the outdoor pool is appreciated despite signs of wear. Breakfast is a basic continental spread with limited protein, and the location is convenient for Crater of Diamonds and nearby eateries, though choices are limited. Expect a no‑frills stay suited to short visits.

Overall the property was very nice. The rooms could use updating in the near future but they were clean and suited our needs nicely. My husband enjoyed the breakfast both mornings and said it was good. In room refrigerator was a nice size and we had a microwave. No coffee maker though. My kids did enjoy the pool. The area was clean and well cared for.

Nice clean room, really only had 2 negatives about it. Bathroom small with no grab bars in it for getting in and out of the tub, and no coffee in room. That being said, plenty of coffee available in lobby area at least at breakfast time and grab bars are not a deal breaker for me yet; just a nicety. Quiet, good wifi reception and ac worked fine, having a ceiling fan was a plus for sure. This is an older building, but maintained well. Pool starting to show some signs of aging as well, but still serviceable. Easy short drive to Crater of Diamonds and Washington State parks. Dining somewhat restricted, but not much available in town, Walmart and a Pizza Hut within sight. I would certainly stay there again.

Decent place in a town with few options. Be vareful of the pool. It's electrified. If your habd gets within 6 inches of either of the pool lights, it'll tingle. Other than that, not bad at all. Breakfast is sparse, but sufficient, with cereal, toast, bagels, oatmeal, yogurt, and toaster pastries.

The property needs an extreme renovation and upgrading. The rooms red carpet, bedding, drapes are from the 1950’s and smell badly like mold and mildew. The drapes are frayed and sunfaded.

Great area and the motel was good but was a bit disappointed on the 2nd night, when a family was assigned a room right above me at 11 pm. The motel wasn’t full. The family was noisy and a child just kept running back and forth. It was 1am when they finally settled down.

Nice little place to stay on our way to the Crater of Diamonds. It was a little pricey for the area, but it was safe and a few places to eat nearby. The donut shop nearby was a great place for breakfast. Bring your own coffee. The stuff in the lobby is cold. The hotel breakfast was pop tarts, cereal and assorted breads.

I think they need to do a better breakfast besides cold cereal and toast or a bagel they need to do some hot breakfast. It was very lacking and unappetizing but the motel itself was very nice. The employees were very nice. I had no problem with that

Serving Breakfast is a big draw when you're a family of four. However, when the breakfast is nothing but oatmeal and bagels (carbs and carbs) and no protein; it is a let down.
