Unhappy
The rooms are very run down & old. The water drains are slow. Only one ice machine worked & it was on the far side of the complex. The restaurant they advertise is not open (which was a major reason for our picking this hotel). The staff was friendly! There were a lot of chickens & crowing roosters around that were cute. Definitely not worth the price; we will not return.

nowhere near as good at it was
Stayed there, nostalgically, remembering the place from 9 years ago. Bar and check-in are updated, which was nice, but the room looked old, refrigerator buzzed most of the night, bed felt worn, and the damn chickens/roosters made noise constantly. In addition, they did away with the nice breakfast for a sub-par continental offering and they added a $2.99 "convenience charge" for paying with a credit card. Do most of their guests pay in cash by the hour???

Too many chickens
This is a very nice little place but there is one big problem. There are many roosters on the property and they start crowing at 3:30-4:00 am.

The bed was dirty with hairs in it, and the overall room cleanliness was just average. My checkout time was at 11 a.m., but I was locked out of my room at 9 a.m. I had to go back and forth to the service desk multiple times to get the door key validated until 11 a.m. The breakfast was mediocre, offering only standard options like bagels and muffins, which weren’t fresh and seemed to be leftovers from previous days.

Under construction. Water damaged room.
The Inn is under construction. The room was damaged and smelled like mold. Ceiling was stained by a roof leak. The toilet ran and ran. No breakfast as advertised. No food there at all. Roosters making lots of noise early in the morning. Front desk person was in a foul mood.

Going to bed and waking up with the chickens!
The cleanliness was on point. But they can keep the chicken and roosters all over the premises. Along with the chickens comes the flies!

4/10 Fair

From the reviews and pictures I was expecting a pretty little inn off that held wedding receptions, etc. The pictures are very misleading. The "Inn" is on a main road, and the rooms are behind the main inn picture in a motor court style. There is a lot of construction going on. The room had a sticky floor and the bathroom tub had at least 2 different layers of peeling paint, a leaking faucet, as well as water damage to the door and surrounding areas. There was no closet door and I could hear the people in the adjacent room. There was not a good seal on the main door to the room so light and air streamed in. The cherry on top was the ROOSTER and other chickens living on the property that woke me up around 5:30 am each morning. The hotel was a stop to break up a trip I had to make from FL to AL, otherwise I would have left after the first night.

When we arrived the office was under construction and it wasn't convenient to register. The pool was also under construction and were not able to use it. There was no prior notice of the construction. The king bed was comfortable but the room was in need of updates. It was also not as clean as you would expect for the price. Two roosters and many chickens roamed the property which didn't bother us but I can see how some people would object. The location was close to a very nice brewery and the Flint River park.

Not satisfied this time
There was a concert that we didn’t know about; wasn’t prior informed. Parking space was limited; sort of an inconvenience. Go home Saturday night and the lights were out; no lights or air for 4 hours; a big inconvenience!

Breakfast Insubstantial
The service that I received was exceptional. When I got in very, very late to the airport, Jacob and Sean took care of me. Jacob was the friendly voice on the phone when I called from Atlanta to let the hotel know what time I was flying in to Albany and needed to be picked up. Sean was there to pick me up and made sure that I got checked in with Jacob and settled in my room. The room was nice and spacious. The bathroom was clean and the bed was comfortable. However, this hotel stated that it offered breakfast and it really shouldn’t. There was only cereal and frozen waffles and frozen pancakes. No bread for toast. Not even a banana or apple. No protein whatsoever and nothing hot at all. If a hotel states that it has breakfast, especially, one that is on the higher end of room rates, it needs to have, at the very least, scrambled eggs and either sausage or bacon. I was very disappointed and hungry. I could have stayed at one of the cheaper hotels and actually had a decent breakfast.
