My husband and I stayed here recently on our way back to Iowa from Tennessee, mainly due to 1)The discounted rates he received through his place of employment and 2)I am a recent former Super 8 assistant manager. The billboard outside clearly stated "ALL NEW ROOMS" - if those were new rooms, I'd like to know in which century! Upon check-in, the front desk clerk at first wouldn't get off her butt, opting to sit in her comfy black chair. When I tried to present my Wnydham Rewards card, she flat out refused to even look at it, stating that since the reservation was in my husband's name, my card was useless. As previously stated, I am a former Super 8 Assistant manager...this desk clerk was dead wrong and very, very rude.
As we entered our room, on the first floor, one could clearly see that those rooms were NOT new! Good gravy, the air conditioner had NO cover on the front, was approx. 3" stuck out from the wall, the walls were horribly painted and the carpet was from yesterday's era. As for cleanliness...there is NO WAY that this particular Super 8 could EVER qualify as a "Pride of Super 8" property. And...we asked for a smoking room...alas, there were NO ashtrays and when I called up to the desk clerk, her comment was "Oh, the housekeepers must have forgot" - she never offered any ashtrays for my use...nothing...so I used a papercup with water in it instead.
As for cleanliness...the housekeepers seriously need to do "high dusting" and "high cleaning" as there were empty shampoo bottles on the shower ledge, dirt on the top of the sink backsplash, there was dust in ALL corners of the room and edge vacuuming hadn't been done for ATLEAST 4-6 months.
My advice...billboards and advertising signs are deceiving. Enter at your own risk. Oh, but the BEST part of this motel is...there is a Walmart Supercenter literally right next door, within a very short walking distance!!!
