Don’t stay here!
Everything was NASTY. There was a big pile of dirt in the shower, there were cockroaches, I woke up and had bites all over me, not sure what from. We slept uneasy all night but it was non refundable so we stayed. We woke up and left at about six in the morning, went to turn right and there was a bunch of cops and a dead body laying in the street. Heck of a way to wake up, for sure. When I booked I thought it was in prattville, and it was downtown Montgomery. It was awful.

There was a large bug on the bathroom floor. Bed looked as though it had been slept in before I got there. The room door didn’t lock. This is a ghetto place to stay in downtown Montgomery. Pictures don’t match actual room conditions.

Checkin was a breeze! I literally walked in, handed the guy my ID, he copied it and handed me a key, and I walked to my room. I wish they could all be like that.

I didn't like anything about the place. It didn't provide secure rooms. The bed was hard and very uncomfortable. The towels were hard and old. Television was broken couldn't even watch anything. It was a very bad experience to stay there and would not recommend it.

I had a two-night reservation late November of 2019. I was checked in by the female owner; very nice and friendly. I unloaded by bags and left to run errands. When I returned, I noticed that there was an ironing board set up right in front of an adjoining door to the adjacent room. This door had a doorknob but no latch and swung freely. I reached through to the other door and could turn the knob. There was no lock on my side to prevent anyone from entering my room from the adjoining room. I went to the office and told the owner I didn't feel safe as my door did not latch nor lock. He stated the second door was screwed closed from the adjacent room. Told him I have no way of knowing/verifying that was true. He said I could check out - he didn't offer another room or other solution. When pressed, he said he could prove it to me but not then as his baby was asleep. I left the office and returned to my room to pack up. He returned and took me to the adjoining room to show me the security. It was a thin strip of metal with two phillips-head screws. I told him anyone with a screwdriver could have access to my room if they wanted to come in. He again said I could check out. I packed up my bags and returned to the office to request a refund. He stated it would have to be processed by Expedia as the reservation was made through Expedia. Twice, I have called Expedia to have the charges refunded. The owner, Mr. Patel, has refused the refund both times even though he

The desk clerk seemed annoyed that we wanted a second key. When we got to the room, the first thing we noticed was an overwhelming musty smell. There was a single chair that was filthy. None of the outlets seemed to work. (We found out later we had to flip a switch to turn them on.) We didn't stay and are seeking a refund which the owner refuses. Frankly, I would rather eat the wasted room rate than stay at this hotel.

Just generally old and dirty. There was dried food all over the tv remote and a wash cloth from a previous guest was still in the tub. I cannot believe I spent $100 for that night’s stay.

Great if you are only wanting Cheap Room
This hotel didn't have many pictures and I now see why! It was not attractive on the outside and looked more like a run down apartment complex instead of a hotel. The parking lot had many available spots available thinking that it was not busy but I think it was more because all the guest/tenants were walking in and out of the area. The room was not bad, it was heated well but in the bathroom only 2 towels were there. We made due with 3 of us. But there was a used Q tip on the floor which was an eye sore. The beds were OK but nothing special. The next day, housekeeping did not clean the room but not a deal breaker. However we did need towels the next morning and I could not find any housekeeping staff at 8am so I went to front desk but no one came to the desk. I came back at 8:30 or so and was able to get the towels. Last thing, the door didn't shut well and if not careful could have been left open if not pulled very tightly. I would not recommend to others but it was the cheap room at the location we needed for this trip. Next time, I will make reservations earlier to stay somewhere else.

Large rooms, colourfully decorated, not stylish but clean and serviceable. Friendly and helpful check-in and check-out. Room had Wifi, TV, fridge and coffee maker (though no coffee, milk or sugar sachets). Very convenient location for downtown tourist attractions and restaurants.
