Cons:

This was an old broken down Knights Inn that has
been somewhat re habbed. Like putting
lipstick on a pig. Other better properties
at similar price on same street.

Pros:

I love the fact you can pull up to the room.

Cons:

The room was super smokey. Its supposed to be a non-smoking room but everyone sits right in front, next to the air conditioners, smoking. All the walls, light switches and the floor were filthy. The bathroom light didn't come on and when we told the man at the front desk, he said you need to use your toothbrush to jam in and turn it on. The light by the sink, however, came on when you walked near. Blinding spotlight to wake everyone when you got up at night.

Check in was a mess, dead bug on the floor
Pros:

We had roof over our heads and a bathroom

Cons:

We arrived very late and the staff tried to put us in already occupied room. After over 30 min of figuring out what was going on, we were given a room with no car access. TV didn't work and I saw a dead bug the size of my nail in the corner.

Good for the money
Pros:

When you select a budget hotel you get a budget hotel, so it's not fair to compare this to other types of hotels. Our room was not fancy but clean and comfortable, and the hotel was easily accessible from the highway. Perfect for our quick stop. A bargain for the money.

We were very pleased with our stay here.
Pros:

The Cozy Garden Inn provided us with a quiet, comfortable night of rest at a very affordable price. We appreciate the conscientious way that the proprietors care for their facility and their guests.

Cons:

For the very affordable price, we have no complaints whatsoever. The continental breakfast was simple; not many options, but fine. If folks want a fancy hot breakfast, they can choose to stay at a nearby chain hotel and pay $100 to $200 more for the night.

Pros:

This is a nice little cozy place nestled between bigger hotels. It is worth the visit because it was newly renovated and it was a clean hotel. Don't be a slave to name brand hotels every now and then.
