Area was quiet and staff was super nice. Room needs updating but its was just right for a nights sleep.
Jennifer, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The plaques of all the plantations in the main building was very nice touch, as well as the hot breakfast was amazing compared to most hotels where it's just cold. Seems like the new management is making steps in The right direction And we look forward to returning and seeing improvements

2/10 Poor

Bad ownership
The staff were great but the owner gave me and my family of 4 the dirtiest look the whole weekend. She would look at us in a bad way and would not take her eyes off of us like she wanted to do something to us. During this stay I just lost my mom and this is how you treat your guest. If you are African American I would think twice about going there because she doesn’t want people like us staying there. She only want you to work for her which is the impression she’s giving. She made me and my family feel very uncomfortable and I worry a lot about others of my race that’s comes in contact with her. To her staff, please please be careful and safe working under her. I would never bring my family or my children to stay around there again. Kids definitely doesn’t deserve to see the ignorance that she puts out there.

Run down and dirty

Re: dump
This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed at! It’s under construction; however, this place should be torn down! Went for complimentary breakfast at 8am, and the food was all gone. Guest were looking around for the food!! It seems as if this is a rent by the week hotel, so many may live there. Trust me, stay elsewhere!!
Felicia, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Worst hotel I’ve ever walked into.
The desk clerk was nice and accommodating. The facility is a dump. We checked into a room and the toilet was running nonstop when I raised the toilet lid water was splashing onto the seat. Went back to the desk got another room when we pulled the covers back on the bed there was a wad of hair between the sheets. We then checked out and went to the Best Western down the street same price 100x nicer. Stay at the Hotel Francis if you want to see what a non updated 1960’s hotel was like.

The carpet felt wet and slimy. And I had roaches in my room.
Jeremy, 1-night trip

The staff made us very welcome to this older, clean, quiet beautiful spot on the map! I would highly recommend this establishment!
John, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good but needs upkeep
Our stay was for a wedding and I know the hotel is under going renovations but just in our room the toilet paper holder comes out of the wall when you pull on paper The toilet flushing is very sluggish For the most part staff are very friendly and helpful we enjoyed our stay
Marie, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a older hotel and it needs alot of updates but it was good for the night. Our phone didn't work and some lights didn't work but we had tv and air so we were fine.
Carla, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

We couldn’t even stay in our room, it was the nastiest hotel I’ve ever been to, tv didn’t work, no phone, stains all over beds, spider webs, bugs, just the nastiest place, we left and found another hotel. Looks ABSOLUTELY nothing like the pic on the website!!!!

Rodney, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Would not recommend
We reserved two rooms; they weren't even in the same building which defeated the purpose of having two rooms. The beds were super small, and the room smelled weird.

6/10 Good

The road you have take to the get to the parking lot sucks. The room was nothing special for the amount of money. The front desk lady was amazing and very helpful. I beleive this hotel is more for "workers" than the general public.
Jennifer, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The fact that there was a strange car riding around the parking lot trying to kidnap my family members, I got locked in my hotel room, then they claimed no Rooms on bottom floor to make it convenient for my handicap assist and that it was nasty, and poorly maintained!!
Christina, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Just ok for an overnight stay.
The place was under construction. The staff was super friendly, but the rooms were very subpar. Toilets and tub faucet ran constantly. Stains in the tub, no shower curtain. The rest of the room was fine and good enough for an overnight stay, but wouldnt stay much longer than that. It was being renovated so I can give them a pass.
