My favorite motels were full on a football weekend, so I gritted my teeth and booked the Jameson. The location is perfect because we could walk to several good chain restaurants, and there is easy access to the road leading to the university as well as to the interstate. Considering the advertised rate was much lower than I am used to paying, I was not expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised. The room, while small, was equipped with a microwave, mini-frig and coffee pot. It smelled good; it was clean and well-kept. The grounds were neat. The common area was clean and pleasant. The fall decorations contributed to a homey feel. All in all, it looked like the employees really care about the Jameson Inn. I gave this motel an overall rating of Very Good, but I mean Very Good for a budget-level motel, in that it's Very Good for what it is. (I consider any hotel with free breakfast "budget level" although I don't know that that is an industry distinction.) The breakfast selection was not as varied as the offerings at other similarly priced motels, but it was nice enough. I really liked that the breakfast steward had individually wrapped each muffin, bagel, and bread slice because the breads stayed fresher and I didn't have to wonder how many people had touched it. I would definitely stay at the Jameson again.

Clean and comfortable. Beds are nice with clean linens and nice pillows. Hotel is well cared for and the staff is nice.

I got this hotel off Hotwire, and was glad to have got it at a great price. We checked in the nite of Hurrican Irene, so the hotel was completely full. The room was very nice, especially the comfort of the bed and free fridge. The bathroom was VERY small, almost hard to get in to use the shower.

The only complaint I think I have about this hotel was the elevator was dirty. Food wrappers all over, and was not cleaned up the whole time I stayed there. While I understand being busy, basic cleaning is very important.

Got a great deal on Priceline. My first-floor room was clean and spacious and pretty quiet. The AC worked great. The bed was comfortable and there were plenty of pillows.

The folks at the front desk were pretty friendly too.

One thing: They have a terrible exercise room. It's out back by the pool, no problem, but the treadmill wasn't working, the weight machine in pieces and the two exercise bikes were ancient. If they can improve on that - and put a water cooler or fountain in there - things would be perfect.
