Best Western is the Best
Pros:

Very friendly service- from checking in to checking out. Every staff member we encountered was extremely nice and seemed to be happy. The young lady working the breakfast area really made us feel welcome. The room was spacious and the beds were comfortable.

Cons:

The bathroom seemed a little small.and it was kind of hard to close the door if you needed to do some serious business in there. But it was very clean.
The AC made a little rattling noise, but it actually was kind of soothing at night. It wasn't a real problem.

A very comfortable overnight with restaurants closeby (Applebee’s), very convenient to I-75, and the best breakfast in t
Pros:

Very close to I-75, so it was easy to find. Both desk clerks we met were extremely pleasant and helpful; Frances in the breakfast room was extremely attentive to keeping all the stations clean, neat and well organized. The breakfast choices were extremely well varied, fresh, hot and delicious - one of the very best we’ve ever encountered, and we travelled a lot! Also, breakfast area is very large and very attractive in shades of blue and lovely phots of Macon.

Best and most reasonably priced hotel we've found in a long while!
Pros:

Best hotel by far on this trip!
Check in was fast and easy. Allen was very welcoming and friendly.
Check out was also efficient and Billie sent us on our way with a smile and wishes for safe travels.
The room was very clean and the bed was extremely comfy. Love the hard flooring instead of the usual nasty carpet!
