From the room to the food everything was really good. We travel to Murray often and have stayed at several different places around town. Some advertised they have breakfast and it turned out to be some stale bagels and cereal or no breakfast at all. But this time I decided to spend a few dollars more and was pleasantly surprised. The fact that they offer a hot buffet style breakfast was worth the price alone and I ended up saving money on the long run. We will be back again soon!

LAURA

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The check in process was easy. The hotel lobby was clean. The rooms were clean and partially remodeled. However the shower faucet was old and falling off, making it nearly impossible to adjust temperature of the water. When reported to front desk staff, we were told to “let them know if it fell off.” The door to the room had a bit of a gap to the outside so the light showed through. At the bottom of the stairwell, there was a giant bowl of cat food for the neighborhood felines ~ which was kind of weird. Breakfast had adequate options but closed promptly at 9am which seemed early on a weekend morning. Overall you get what you pay for - definitely a no frills hotel
