Charming, Decent Place to Stay

The hotel seems like it was very nice at one point, and it's fairly well maintained. I was looking for water after using the fitness area, and I was told I could purchase some by the front desk attendant. That was disappointing. Overall, I enjoyed staying there, and I would stay there again.

There were crumbs on the carpet and we killed 4 ants. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were dated, but okay. The TV was very small. I would NOT stay again due to the bugs. We canceled our reservation here for next month and will be staying else where.

Was very very amazed at this location! We booked it the night before because we were visiting family and it was want far from them. We have found our spot every time we come to Decatur. Place was gorgeous!! Only complaint was when I booked it said only 1 room left and when we got there I’d say there were only 5 cars at this huge place. Be a bit more honest

Cannot recommend it at all.

Back in its day, this was THE place to stay in Decatur. I understand it recently changed ownership, so let's hope they resolve the issues. For starters, as I checked in, the two ladies behind the Front desk were complaining about working there to themselves. I could hear their whole conversation. The side door closest to the elevators is now locked. This means that once you check in, you must walk down a long corridor to reach the elevators. Your car cannot be driven around to the side door since you can't get in to save your legs. They serve breakfast. On the first day, they actually made fresh omelets or scrambled eggs. After that, they just had that huge pan of scrambled eggs, which were dry and tough. Forget the food in the bar, which opens at 5:00 pm and closes at 9:00 pm. Best to drive a mile or so to get better food. They won't give you service unless you ask for it, so hang your towels up to dry because they don't provide fresh ones. Overall, unless the new owners address the issues and improve service and food quality, best to stay out at Forsyth, newer hotels, better food options, and the price is the same or better.

Overnight w/ family

Pros - hotel was clean and quiet, staff was friendly, room was clean, room bathroom was good size, indoor pool bigger than expected! Cons - hot tub was out of order, shower water pressure was very weak and the waffle station is only on weekends; however, the “weekday” breakfast did have many choices!

Everyone we encountered was extremely pleasant. The woman working the breakfast area went out of her way to make my daughter a pancake and was very friendly.
