“It was ... okay”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 October 2009

I booked this because I'm a Marriott Rewards member and they were offering a ticket package to two local attractions if you booked a two bedroom suite. Hotel was a bit hard to find due to poor roadway signage in the area and both GPS units (CrackBerry and TOMTOM) gave us bad (like two exits up) intel. The location, once you find it, is a mostly commercial area with lots of dining and mid-level big box shopping nearby. This was the only positive for us. First, the front desk had no idea about any ticket packages and we were told we'd have to wait for a manager the next morning to reconcile this. Turns outs, no one ever books the packages -- I'll explain some possible reasons for this later -- and they did not have them onsite. Manager was very kind and offered to drive into Montgomery, purchase the tickets, and bring them back but I suggested she just take the difference off the room which she did without a problem. The room itself appeared to be only marginally clean. The property is an older one with a facelift, so its hard to tell dirt from wear and shoddy repairs. I am not a fan of this situation and think hotels should do everything possible to make rooms at least APPEAR to be clean. Oddly colored grout, painted over stains, and stained/chipped furniture are negatives for me. The tub apparently used to have some of those no skid pads that left stains...stains on porcelain..whatever. As this property is an extended stay option, there were also a plethora of cooking smells and questionable looking characters in the parking lot. The walls are also very thin and I now know that the couple next door has relationship problems. Not because they were yelling, but rather having a slightly angry discussion. We had originally planned to add a night but went elsewhere. Despite all of this its not a bad location and the right room would probably make this an okay stay for a male patron seeking a long-term accommodations.

“Comfortable stay and very pleased!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 June 2009

person found this review helpful

I stayed here on 6/29/09 in a studio suite with 2 other adults for one night on our way to Florida. It was extremely clean and had a homey feel - it had a small full kitchen, king bed and pull-out sofa. The room also had a HUGE closet, and a nicely appointed bathroom. This type of hotel caters to a business/longer term stay, but it was great for one night. The grounds were also very nice, and the hotel was located in a safe and convenient area (near lots of other hotels, restaurants, gas stations/stores). The staff there was also extremely pleasant, friendly, and helpful. The only negative thing I noticed at all was that the small outdoor pool had a greenish hue to it, but I didn't have time to use it anyway! The entire hotel is also non-smoking, so there's no fear of getting stuck in a stinky room.

“Good value for 2 bed rooms. Few problems still a good deal.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 April 2006

Great value for two bed room suite. With a good kitchen that made a family with teenagers comfortable. Good WIFI connection but no lobby computer or printer. No free breakfast, but many restaurants and a grocery store not very far away. Comes with apartment stove, fridge, microwave, coffee maker and toaster. Sorry ice maker did not work and the oven could use a pans. . You could hang out for weeks and not get cabin fever. Very close to exit I-85. so be sure to get the middle left lane on Carmichael Rd. if you want to get on the interstate. Again great value.

“Failed on a second chance....”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 January 2006
1
person found this review helpful

After a really poor stay in May 2005, I gave this hotel a second chance, and they disappointed again. I am a Gold Rewards member, and they put me into an ADA room, with a broken shower and a coffeepot that was left dirty. They fell on my list of places to stay in Montgomery, but I gave them a second chance. I had reserved, and was guaranteed, a non-smoking room. Upon check-in, I find that there was no non-smoking rooms available and they really didn't seem too bothered. Their Gold Rewards member guarantee doesn't seem to mean much here. Given a choice, definately stay at the SpringHill Suites right next door - much better value for the same money. This is a very tired property with tired employees and not much regard for business travelers that give them a lot of business year after year.

“Average ....”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 December 2003

I travel quite a bit on business but this was my first trip to Alabama.
The Montgomery Townplace is a clean and relatively new suite hotel. The accomodations seemed to be aimed at the lower end of the business/longer stay market, because some amenities are lacking. For example, there's no breakfast (I should have read the hotel listing closer) and the rooms are on the small side. My biggest gripe concerned the soundproofing between the rooms. The walls are pretty thin and you'll be able to hear your neighbor's TV better than your own. When the TV was shut down the snoring began.

Location is good - just off I-85 and there are plenty of restaurants in the area. Unfortunately rush hour traffic in the immediate vicinity is horrible.

Many guests seemed to be military personnel associated with the nearby Air Force base.

If you're on a tight budget but still want a kitchen and refrigerator the Townplace Suites may be acceptable to you IF you bring a set of earplugs.
