We stayed at the Southgate because we were looking for a budget motel. We did get a reasonable rate ($55 plus tax) and found the front desk staff to be very friendly and extremely helpful.

Our room was quite comfortable and was reasonably clean. There was a mini fridge in the room. My only complaint was that the carpets and chairs in the room were just filthy. They are in absolutely desperate need of a good steam cleaning! It was a real shame, too, since everything else about the room was in my opinion better than you would expect from a "budget" motel. The bathroom, furniture, walls and bedding were all very clean, it was just the carpet and upholstery that needed to be cleaned.

Our bed was comfortable and the hotel was quiet.

The hotel has a small outdoor pool, a hot tub and an exercise room which contained a stair climber, an exercise bike and a weight machine.

A continental breakfast is included in the rate. The breakfast consisted of hot and cold cereals, toast & jams, english muffins, bagels, french toast, belgian waffles, fresh fruit, fruit juices, milk, coffee and teas.

All in all, I got more than I paid for from this hotel. I would stay here again, but only if the carpets had been cleaned.
