With a promotion at work, comes trips to our sister office in Decatur, and with that comes a stay…read moreat a local hotel. Having never been to Alabama, I wasn't sure what to expect, but was pleasantly surprised by my stay here.
Star #1: Upon arrival, Summer, the sweet front desk woman greeted me with a smile. Although she was on the phone with another customer, she happily greeted me, checked me in and sent me on my way! I saw her multiple times throughout my time at the hotel and she was always friendly and sweet.
Star #2: Rooms are newly renovated with updated electronics, large in size, clean, offer a small kitchen space (micro, Keurig and fridge) and have the best damn beds to date. I booked my trip last minute in Feb, which yielded a room with two queen beds, but king rooms are also available. Another pro - the rooms cool down fast when blasting the AC, which I greatly appreciated after being in the humid Alabama air.
Star #3: The hotel boasts a wide variety of amenities (pool, hot tub, outdoor patio, free WIFI, gym with both free weights and cardio equipment), it's the complimentary breakfast buffet that had me at hello! Each morning (starting at 5:30AM), the hotel staff prepares the most delicious offerings for breakfast! Every palette will be happy as everything under the sun is offered here - think fresh biscuits, eggs, waffles, bagels, yogurt, and more! Although, with COVID in full force, I'm sure things are different.
Star #4: I was not privy to the rental car - as my coworker used it frequently for additional tasks - so I was happy to see a handful of surrounding businesses nearby for me to venture to! A liquor store, Logan's Roadhouse (similar to Texas Roadhouse) and a Dollar General (which literally has EVERYTHING) are directly across the street, making me a happy girl to get out of the hotel room, stock up on some wine and snacks before relaxing back at the hotel.
Although this doesn't seem to be leadership's hotel of choice, but when visiting Decatur again, I will definitely stay here!
