The breakfast had a big range of tasty food and drinks, and check-in was easy and smooth. Our room and the accommodations were just right. This was the most beautiful, wonderful place we've stayed. We'd highly recommend it. Thank you!

I don't usually choose hotels with outside-facing doors, and I came across this one while traveling without knowing what to expect. But once I opened the room, I felt relieved: it was clean and looked comfortable. Check-in, the price, and the room's comfort and cleanliness were all great, and breakfast was decent too. The stay turned out fantastic and exceeded my expectations. A great option if you're looking for a place to stay.

The room was clean, well maintained, and showed almost no wear, just maybe a couple of scuffs under the bathroom sink. Wi-Fi connected easily, and the night was quiet after I briefly heard a baby crying next door around 9:45 pm. This was one of at least six two-star motels at the Manning, SC exit off I-95, with prices roughly $75-110 a night. I had randomly checked two others first, both tied to large chains, including one associated with Wyndham, and their latest reviews mentioned roaches when lights were switched on. I didn't see that mentioned here, so I gave this one a try and booked through Orbitz about 90 minutes before arriving. The clerk was quick and efficient.

The room felt safe, with good lighting and cameras in the parking lot. There's also a charging lot connected to the hotel property if you're driving a Tesla. Niesha was at the front desk that day and came into the breakfast room to check that we had what we needed and that the room was okay. We had a pleasant, brief chat before she moved on to the next guests. The place has recently been remodeled inside and out, and the room was clean, nice, and welcoming. The bed and pillows were comfortable, which matters a lot to me. No bugs or signs of them. Breakfast was good, with a little pancake machine that you wave at to make fresh pancakes when you want them. We'd definitely stay again.
