This lil place is nothing fancy. It’s not a bad place. Perfectly located. There are NO extras like fresh towels, coffee, room cleaning or such. The price is a little high for all that they don’t offer. Nonetheless it is still not a bad place to stay.

The bathroom was really clean as it seems to be recently renovated. The carpets not so much. The front desk staff was hard to get ahold of and was often not in the office or didnt respond to the doorbell until called on the phone

The "cheap" room was one that hadn't been renovated yet and on the second floor. Not a big deal, but I'm 6'1" and the top of the shower was maybe 4'8". Bed was comfortable enough, but hopefully, the renovated rooms are better. An adequate overnight.

We appreciate your honest feedback and are sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your stay to it’s fullest. Like you said, we are in the renovation process and have photos of the newly renovated rooms on Expedia when you book the room. We are almost finished with renovations as only a few rooms are left and give the older rooms a cheaper rate for budget conscious guests as we finish these renovations. We try to give the best experience possible while also being the cheapest option in the area. Hope you give us another chance in the future! Thank you, Park Drive Inn

Hello Ronald, We’re sorry to hear you didn’t enjoy your stay. With additional cost of $5-10, our brand new and renovated rooms are available, which feature new furnishings, mattresses, and bath tubs. Next time you’re in town we recommend you to try one of these rooms and let us know what you think! We’re also sorry to hear about your difficulties using the rewards system through hotels.com. We would like to point out that this is not our fault as this property isn’t eligible for this free night offer. This is usually only available for franchise hotels, whereas this is an independent motel. Your emailed confirmation should’ve stated this prior to the check-in date. Thank you, Park Drive Inn

All of our rooms are cleaned the moment that someone departs from the Inn. During a several day stay, if your DO NOT DISTURB sign is on the door no one will enter your room for privacy. Breakfast is from 6am-9am and is always filled with pastries and cereal. We do have only one plastic display filled with pastries but it is checked on to assure pastries are available for all customers. Additionally, if you ever have any concerns your welcome to contact management and they are immediate there to assist and make your stay better. We strive to serve our customers. Thank you.

Great little place!
Was visiting family in the “Thumb “, so there were not many choices for hotels. I settled on Park Drive Inn because it was closest to my route. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice it was and how friendly the manager was. She told me about the local area and was very helpful with directions. The room was very clean and nice - not a lot of frills, but was perfectly lovely and felt very safe. I would definitely stay here again and recommend for families or solo travelers

An okay place to sleep.
While the room was clean, we were greeted with a funky, stale smell when we entered the room. As luck would have it, the ice machine quit working the day before we wanted a little ice for our cooler. Continental breakfast was sad—cold cereal and packaged rolls. All we needed was a place to sleep, and we got that.

I wasn't sure what to expect, but after reading comments I expected cleanliness and that's what we got! The rooms are very clean, which was great to see. The exterior is being worked on as of June 2019. Looks like the owners are dedicated and taking this place step by step, and turn an older motel to a nice place again, which is great to see. We knew the continental breakfast wouldn't be much, and it isn't. There are places to eat, fast food and sit down, within immediate walking distance, and a really nice playground for kids (which we had) very close by. I would suggest maybe more breakfast as time goes on and maybe a guide for the hotel- amenities in this cute community. A plus for travelers!

“My Biggest Like” at the Park Drive Inn is Halena who, from the moment I arrived, made my stay absolutely splendid. From checking-me-in cheerfully, to the check-out, her attentive and friendly and caring disposition were wonderful—and I was enjoying myself so much that I extended my stay to Two Nights. The rooms are remodeled, spacious and comfortable—and you will be walking distance from StarBrite for excellent eating—and an equally hospitable experience. (Their food is Hometown Great.) I enjoyed myself immensely and will be back!

Not a lot of options in Caro.. Do not let the outside of the building turn you away. It may not look like much on the outside, but this place had the CLEANEST rooms I've ever experienced!
