This is about the 3rd time I have stayed at this motel. It's just your basic motel but it's clean, has some nice homey touches, and the lady who's there at night (Holly) made me feel like a guest, not just a customer. I got the feeling she was looking out for me, a woman traveling alone, particuarly; she put me in the room nearest the office which made me feel better since the rooms have exterior entrance only. When you go outside in the morning you see trees all around and hear all kinds of birds chirping. There's a children't playground next to the pool. They have a waffle maker for breakfast. Lots of flowers and plants around. Tomatos growing in the front yard. Little touches and the clean air make this a special little motel (that and its rates are pretty affordable).
Only disadvantages, you have to make a U turn and watch for signs to find it, and it is surrounded by "country" so little bugs can get into your room (I saw a couple of those little beetles in the bathroom, no big deal for me, nothing like the big jobs that walk in in Atlanta!). It sits on a hill over I85 so you get the road noise, but otherwise it's very natural. For some reason I just love this spot.
Oh, and they are not too country to have wireless internet now. Whatta you know, my cell phone even worked here.
