Categories

Cleanliness
8.2
Most guests repeatedly praised clean rooms, linens and presentation; a few reports (two roaches, hallway smell, scratched corridors) lowered the score slightly.
Service
9
Staff described as friendly, professional and helpful across many reviews; front-desk interactions were frequently highlighted positively (one minor note about non-working phones).
Location
9
Conveniently located off the highway, near restaurants and the Southern Miss campus with good access to town; some guests noted nearby apartments and occasional loitering.
Room Quality
8.1
Beds and showers were comfortable for many, but there were multiple mixed reports (bed could be firmer, oversized pillows, noisy A/C, thin walls, shower door/TV problems) that pulled the rating down.
Amenities
8.7
Breakfast was frequently called exceptional (strong plus); however in-room amenity gaps were noted (no microwave in room, occasional TV issues).
Value for Money
8.8
Several guests explicitly praised the value (good rapport qualité/prix, '5 star on 3 star budget'); the property met guests' needs overall.
Food and Beverage
9.1
Breakfast was consistently described as excellent/exceptional and enjoyed by families — a clear strength in the reviews.
Overall Experience
7.9
Majority of stays were positive with recommendations and repeat praise, but significant negatives for some guests (pest sighting, noise issues, loitering) reduced the overall score.
