Enjoyed the comfort of the room and cleanliness. Hope to visit again

Decent property for the price. Nothing crazy about. Nothing great, but nothing bad. Best thing about it is the AC got the room SUPER cold and the property is literally right beside both a Hardee’s and a Waffle House. Past that, there’s nothing to write home about. Easy check-in and out. Affordable

Beds were extremely comfortable and beyond our expectations! Management was great to deal with!! This will be the first place I will stay when I am back in town!

Despite this location being listed as Pet Friendly on the Expedia site , this is not the case! At check-in, the clerk informed me that pets were not allowed. When I pointed out that the website said they were pet friendly, he told me that was not their policy. In addition, in my view, this property is not ready for room rental, there was box after box after box of room items stored in the lobby, I presume for installation later. I was a bit concerned also that there was not a single automobile in the parking lot, so I am going to say that it was just as well, If you are traveling with pets, do not consider this property.

Brand new remodeling of entire property. Used to be a Motel 6. Everything is brand new and fresh. Only issue was I reserved a king bed room (site said 5 left) but was put in a 2 queen bed room after being told no kings available but it looked like there was only 1 other guest on the property.

To start hotel was paid for and clearly stated no extra fees due at property. When I refused to let me charge my card again then they wanted $100 cash deposit for a hotel that definitely wasn’t worth that. Check out at 11. At 8 house keeping kept banging on the door to do housekeeping. So I do not recommend this place. We and family members stay in Decatur very often. None of us will ever stay here again.

The entire property is under renovation, there were no lights next to the bed, few outlets, it did seem very clean but the door also didn't fully close that there was light coming through.

I get it, this is a cheap hotel. Booked a smoking room to find out there is no smoking at all. Tv stopped working a couple hours in, and I was treated like I was the one who broke it because it was not mounted to the table like other rooms. If I was to give a star rating they would get negative 5 stars

Stay was ok at best,and also some parts were stolen off my car while there.

There was a hole in the bathroom door and some damage under the sink. However, the front desk attendant said they were in the process of remodeling all of the rooms. The room was clean and the front desk clerk was friendly. Overall, a nice budget-friendly place for an overnight stop.

Well, for the most part the room was less to be desired than i would have thought. The room was a smoking room, so i didn't expect it to be fantastic but would have expected it clean. The room cost me $80 a night, it smelled like Marijuana when i first walked in, then when i put my bag down roaches scattered from the desk and up the wall. They were in the bathroom and around the microwave and refrigerator. The trash can had trash in it already and one of the rags was used and had lipstick on it, and the bed spread was coated in cigarette burns. I'm surprised there was enough cover to stay warm so I put the thermostat up high. I doubt i would ever stay there again unless i absolutely had to.

The parking wasn’t user friendly. It was very narrow. The bathroom needed some TLC. The bedspread had burn holes in it. The room was clean but needed a chair.

This was by far the worst place I’ve ever attempted to stay. We walked in and turned around and walked right back out. You should not list this hotel! I felt I needed a shower after just walking in door!

This motel 6 in Decatur AL was disgusting. At 10 pm the lobby was closed and the staff member checked me in through a window with bars on it. On the room it was very dirty. There was dried and bloody boogers stuck on the wall above the headboard. You could see light to outside surrounding the perimeter of the door to outside. We were on our way back from a road trip and nothing else was available.

The room (especially the bathroom) was quite dirty. Loud noises all through the night.

Customer service was awful, desk attendant was rude. The toilet was running all night. Several lights and wall sockets did not work. T. V. was to small, considering the size of the room.

I checked in late (around 8pm) and was very glad I did. I didn't even make it to the room. The parking lot had several thugs doing some kind of business in cars. Two doors were propped wide open with unsightly people coming in and out. It just felt like a seedy hotel from a movie. I went back and told the lady at the desk that we didn't feel safe and demanded a quick refund. Later, after talking to some locals, we realized that this hotel was very popular for drug deals and prostitution. For your safety, please pick another hotel.

I have stayed at places all over the world, and this is the worst place I have ever stayed. I feel like they should have paid ME to stay there. Moldy and dirty shower, dead bugs under the sheets, smells musty, cigarette burns on the floor of a "no-smoking" room. Overall.... just gross!!!

The furniture was old and broken
Could easily be made in to a great room with a little decorating

Staff was friendly, room was clean, bed was a little too soft but nothings prefect. Had a frig and microwave. Its within walking distance of several restaurants and gas stations

Basic room. Clean. Especially like the laminate flooring for cleanliness. Beds old and a little lumpy it could have been a little newer.
Didn’t care for the fact that checking in had to be done at a small window with safety bars on it. Only a tiny hole to slide ID and credit card through. Not allowed inside. Very close to Hardee’s Jacks and Waffle House is a plus.
0.5 / 5.0
The clerk at check-in was sullen, frowned constantly, and was hard to understand through the window being used instead of the lobby.
After the first night our room was not serviced in any way. When I called and asked for fresh towels I was told to bring my soiled towels to the front door and they would be exchanged for fresh ones. I was not given any wash cloths even after I expressly asked for them.
Other than the microwave being filthy (we did not use it at all) the room was not in bad condition.
I probably will not stay at this motel in the future!

My experience with this hotel was TERRIBLE! There was no parking for anyone with a trailer. Staff member was rude when he informed us of where we couldn’t park. Staff member expected two women to park in a dark parking lot and walk up a dark alley way alone. Do not recommend this hotel

This was an embarrassing pleaae ro rake my family. We only needed a place to sjeep while driving to Florida and my expectations were very realistic and I can truly sleep anywhere and through anything, but tgis was challenging. Beds were terrible. One bed had massive, basty stains on the side that looked to be the result of fecal incontinence. The water pipes in the bathroom shower clanked loudly ecery 2-3 minutes all through the night. The toilet seat would not stat up so it was stained from being peed on a million times. Cob webs on all baseboards, mildew on basthroom ceiling, light shinjng through door on all 4 sides.
