What guests think
Across recent reviews, Southern Inn draws repeated complaints about poor cleanliness, pests, smoke smells, and maintenance issues, while some guests highlight friendly staff, pet-friendly policies, and a convenient location, with several noting neighborhood concerns, noise, and a generally run-down feel.
Housekeeping and upkeep are inconsistent, with multiple reports of missing towels, broken fixtures, and nonfunctioning or absent smoke detectors. Several guests also mention unreliable Wi-Fi, noise from nearby areas or the ice machine, and that the breakfast area is closed. Expect a budget stay with convenient access but significant cleanliness, maintenance, and environment trade-offs.

Property was filthy, stairwells unsafe (handrail ripped out of the wall, uneven steps covered in grime) Everything, even the asphalt was covered in grime. Furniture had bodily fluid stains, and overwhelming cig smoke even in the non smoking rooms. I switched rooms and it was the same. Hair dryer did not work, tv had impossible to watch picture (dark and fuzzy) Next time i would sleep in my car.,

Girl the only reason I booked this hotel was because they advertise it is an 8 minute walk to Bonnaroo…that was a lie. There were hair and dead bugs on the floor of the bathroom. No smoke detector in the room, major no no. We were right by the ice machine which was cool but we could hear everyone getting ice. There were 3 bottle caps left by the jacuzzi. It was not worth $500/night.

Stains all over the walls. Bathroom door didn’t close. Shower curtain stained. Minimal towel/wash clothes. Did not bring additional towels when asked. Furniture was stained. Refrigerator did not chill anything. Latch/lock to door was broken. Outside stairs smelled like pee. Lobby was not accommodating at all. Sketchy place overall. Do not go here.

Property is unsanitary and obvious that folks live there or rent to use drugs :( Not a safe place to stay especially when traveling alone. I was worried about leaving my bag in the room , seemed easy to break in, or worse I wasn’t confident there weren't creepy crawlies. Smelled like smoke and urine, broken toilet, stains and graffiti carved into a door.

I called the front desk to ask what the Wi-Fi password was and the front desk associate told me that it was on my envelope to my room and it was not and when I told him that it wasn't he said yes it did you just have to look. The bathroom door did not close the shower head sprayed on the ceiling the door and had a giant hole down at the bottom left where bugs and rodents could just come right in. If I had the time to stand and argue with the person this morning about the condition of the room, I would have and I would have demanded my money back but the area didn't feel safe and I was just over the whole experience and wanted to get out of there, this was not worth the almost $80 that I spent for the night.

The building was under construction. Yellow tape and machinery in parking space we was to use for our room. Don’t stay there they lied to Expedia and said they were not doing construction and will not refund our money.

RUN AWAY. The room was disgusting. I pulled the comforter back and roaches fell out. There were dead bugs all over the room. Food debris everywhere. Animal waste on the floors. I went to the front desk and requested a refund and the staff told me that Expedia would have to refund it. Expedia told me it’s up to the hotel. No one will refund my $190 and so I’m out all that money and still had to go book another room somewhere else. This is bad business.

This property had bed bugs. We showed images to expedia and Southern inn and still have not received a refund. I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy. Management was threatening and scary. The bedding had paint and room was filthy. I would rather sleep in a car or outside then ever stay here!

The stay was decent for a cheap motel and in a convenient location. People played loud music in their vehicles all hours of the night. Our stay was three days. Not once did house keeping come to do a tidy-up. The floors weren’t swept, even after asking a direct house keeper on the second day. She said she would come back, never did. We had a double bed room, 4 people. They only supplied enough towels for two people. On the second day, house keeping took all of the dirty towels and never brought new ones. We called around 6pm to tell them we needed towels! No coffee maker, the trash wasn’t emptied daily. The hotel was decent but the customer service regarding cleanliness was poor! The front desk was polite. The website says there is breakfast, but the breakfast area is closed down as a storage room. I asked the desk clerk and she said it’s been closed since Covid. In my opinion, this should be removed from the website.

The rooms are quiet. The hotel location is amazing. The girl at the front desk is delightful. BUT seriously guys. CLEAN THE ROOMS. The room despite being non smoking stunk of weed. Air it out ? Bugs everywhere. One crawled on me as I slept. Killed it… see photo… many cockroaches. Cigarette butts in the floor, dirty tissues on the floor. Stains and dirt everywhere. HOW is this possible. You have cleaning staff… all you have to do is clean. I left at 2am and slept in my truck. The roof was quiet… but breathing is optional. Sadly hotels won’t allow for refunds ….

We booked a smoke free room. They gave us a room and when we went to it, the door was cracked and it reeked of weed! We told them and got a different room and they gave us one that had the smoke alarm disabled and hanging by the wires. This room also smelled like smoke. The pillows were also the worst we’ve seen in a hotel. We did not feel comfortable there and didn’t want to deal with it so we packed back up and drove through the night, instead of sleeping there. Terrible experience!

Stayed here because it was the only hotel I could find in area that allowed pets. Check into1st room and fire alarm was beeping for low battery then front desk moved me to a 2nd room. 2nd room had bed bugs and dirty sheet (see picture), then moved to a 3rd room. Walked into 3rd room with lights on in both bedroom and bathroom and a fast food bag at the desk/table. Moved to a 4th room which seemed OK however the staff acted like I was inconveniencing them.

We had a double bed room, 4 people. They only supplied enough towels for two people. On the second day, house keeping took all of the dirty towels and never brought new ones. We called around 6pm to tell them we needed towels! No coffee maker, the trash wasn’t emptied daily. The hotel was decent but the customer service regarding cleanliness was poor! The front desk was polite. The website says there is breakfast, but the breakfast area is closed down as a storage room. I asked the desk clerk and she said it’s been closed since Covid. In my opinion, this should be removed from the website.

The rooms are quiet. The hotel location is amazing. The girl at the front desk is delightful. BUT seriously guys. CLEAN THE ROOMS. The room despite being non smoking stunk of weed. Air it out ? Bugs everywhere. One crawled on me as I slept. Killed it… see photo… many cockroaches. Cigarette butts in the floor, dirty tissues on the floor. Stains and dirt everywhere. HOW is this possible. You have cleaning staff… all you have to do is clean. I left at 2am and slept in my truck. The roof was quiet… but breathing is optional. Sadly hotels won’t allow for refunds ….

The staff was wonderful and it was a convenient location to Bonnaroo and allowed pets. Yes, the rooms could have been cleaned better but it was nothing some Clorox wipes couldn’t take care of. I plan on coming back next year!

Girl the only reason I booked this hotel was because they advertise it is an 8 minute walk to Bonnaroo…that was a lie. There were hair and dead bugs on the floor of the bathroom. No smoke detector in the room, major no no. We were right by the ice machine which was cool but we could hear everyone getting ice. There were 3 bottle caps left by the jacuzzi. It was not worth $500/night.

Property is unsanitary and obvious that folks live there or rent to use drugs :( Not a safe place to stay especially when traveling alone. I was worried about leaving my bag in the room , seemed easy to break in, or worse I wasn’t confident there weren't creepy crawlies. Smelled like smoke and urine, broken toilet, stains and graffiti carved into a door.

Had to call 911 because I got woken up at 6:50 am by a woman screaming outside and banging on windows because of some kind of domestic dispute. Obviously was not about to go or look outside. I heard young children in the vicinity, so I decided to call police to check on the matter at hand since children were involved. I told the operator I didn't have much info I just heard a screaming woman and children. Next thing I know police arrive and they knock on MY DOOR asking for more info. I again told them I had no other info and was honestly shocked that they felt it was okay to parade my room, because obviously you are now putting me in danger because these violent people now know I called the cops. Left immediately and will not return. Sheesh

Bathtub, sink and couch are badly stained and kinda gross. Bed appeared clean so that’s all that really mattered for this stay. Front desk clerk was friendly

Room was clean. Cramped but clean. Staff helpful and kind. No breakfast, but waffle house is in front of it and everything else around. Was nervous about other reviews. Checked for bug and there was none, thankfully!

We stayed during banaroo and everything was sold out. This motel was over 250 a night. There was no hot water, poor lighting, our lock was broken and shampoo packs that came in to go ketchup packets. It was clean and the bed were comfortable but not worth what they were charging.
