we stayed when i took a trip to montgomery to visit my boyfriends family! the rooms were spacious. we booked a smoking room and couldnt even smell the stale smoke like other hotels! i wonder how they do it!

we stayed in room 264 on 11 15 2011 2 of the light didn't worl , the shower didn't work and as we left we noticed the smoke detecter was gone . we went down for breakfast in the morning and there was none . we asked to speek to a manager . the girl at the desk said there was none . if we would have noticed the smoke detecter and the shower sooner we would not have stayed

This location was chosen as the venue for a educational workshop. I stayed here for the convenience and price. Should have checked reviews first.
positives: location and our room was clean.
negatives: our meeting rooms were filthy- the bathrroms did finally get cleaned an hour after the participants arrived.
only three splinters from the uncovered plywood tables

After reading the reviews, we chose this Quality Inn. Check-in was not without problems. I was the only one checking in and the clerk, who had been on the phone when I arrived, kept it on her shoulder throughout most of the process. Then, she told me that my credit card had been declined. This was not possible as I had purchased gas 30 minutes before. She just smiled at me, waiting for another card. She never said a word. No! I asked her to try it again, and that time it went through. Too bad she didn't offer to do that in the first place. We went to our room, and it was in a rear, quiet location. The room was basic but large and the bed was very comfortable. No problem there, other than it was a well used room and the paint on the bathroom ceiling was mostly peeling off. We had asked for a smoking room, but there was no ashtray. We drove down the road toward the city to find a restaurant, and there are not many in this area. We finally settled for Wendy's (very good). About 10:00 PM we heard what sounded like two quick gunshots, but not really close. That DID alarm us but, as we had noticed a security guard on duty at check in and there were a lot of other rooms occupied, we decided to stay, an OK choice. There is a free continental breakfast included, and it was really a no frills one, but there was cereal, toast, sweet rolls, coffee & juice. I tried using the phone to make a local call, but I could not make it. The desk clerk said that she didn't know what was wrong, maybe all the lines were busy. Nope. Tried to use Skype, but the internet service had quit (it had done that once before, and was not really very fast). Finally used a cell phone to make a local call. I'm a member of the Choice Privileges program and should receive a daily newspaper. When I didn't, I asked the desk clerk and she said they didn't have any, maybe the property "down the street" would have one. Upon check out, my bill had a charge for "Privilege Tax". I asked about it, but the clerk didn't know what it was. She asked the manager who said it was a new state tax. Since there was no specific tax entry for state tax, I guess this was reasonable. Overall, this was a comfortable room but nothing else. I would not stay here again.
