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.

Worst place in Decatur
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.
