Top option for the Cherry Blossom Festival in Macon, Georgia
Pros:

The staff was super friendly and accommodating. The location was perfect near I-75 but with no road noise.

Cons:

Our room was not ready when we arrived a bit before 3:00 pm and we had driven 6 hours from Charleston to make it for the Cherry blossom parade. This made us late to get an Uber to downtown Macon.

Excellent experience.
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent. A mix of hot foods and self serve items. Two attendants on duty to replenish, restock and clean.

Cons:

Not a fan of the open shower where water spray invariably wets the floor. Trendy, but impractical. I predict the LVP will be replaced.

Gretchen made it a lovely stay
Pros:

Nice to get upgraded as a titanium into a suite. The hotel is relatively new so everything was lovely, fresh and clean. I’m not a big fan of this group of hotels as most I’ve experienced are old and smelly so I avoid them, but this one is the best and right off I75. Some casual restaurants and bars are all within walking distance and the parking is free. It has a pool and gym. Only disappointment was breakfast is totally cleared away and gone by 9am. Gretchen on front desk on check in and check out was delightful and gave us waters as we missed breakfast. I recommend this place!

The Staff are the highlight of this place!
Pros:

It is one of the most convenient places between Mercer University & the storage unit we had to store my college student’s belongings when the freshman year had ended

Cons:

It’s also right near the highway so expect the sounds of trucks & emergency vehicles
