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.
