    We absolutely LOVED this place The vibe was chill. The rooms are so unique. Comfortable beds & linens. Fabulous shower!! We stayed in the Elvis room and LOVED IT! Chilled out in the courtyard with mimosas in the morning. Enjoyed just sitting out front and enjoying the quiet country vibe. If you're a Schitts Creek fan, it has that vibe!! Except the Motel is in much better shape than that!!! The owners are awesome, took time to chat with us and give us a little history on the place.

    Booked the Havana Room for a last minute stay. Check in and check was super easy. Room was super fun decorated. It was nice and quiet. Loved the tile in the bathroom and the glitter grout! We will definitely be back when in the area.

    What a gem tucked into a small Georgia town just outside of Chattanooga, TN! We went down with a group of teens for a photo shoot and couldn't get enough pics within this amazing motel! The owners have clearly put their heart and soul into making this a magical getaway for travelers. Each room was unique and totally different. We had the 50's movie theme room, complete with candy and popcorn. Another room was a 70's rock band theme with orange shag carpet on the wall and a disco ball light fixture. Beyond the decor was a comfortable room with memory foam mattress and cozy bedding. Each room had a coffee maker, hair dryer, clothes steamer, soft towels and plenty of storage for your clothes and personal items. During the evening we took advantage of the lovely courtyard with multiple fireplace options and comfy furniture. The owners introduced themselves and made us feel welcome. They were delighted to help make sure our photography experience was perfect! Within a 30 min drive you have hiking trails, the state park and Chattanooga. Definitely on my list of places to visit again!

    PAC man all over. Including shower tiles

    This is the cutest boutique inn. My teenage nephew and I stayed in the pac man room. Very clean and uniquely decorated. 20 minutes from Chattanooga. Well worth the scenic drive. The courtyard was great too. We loved it. He was enjoying the game in the room.

    See all

    Who knew it was possible to stay above the clouds?! This place is perfect for a getaway. Friends…read moregetaway, lovers getaway, solo getaway, golfing getaway and/or a nature getaway. Just take the time to getaway and relax. Looking through the clouds at a rainbow and feeling as though you can reach out and touch it, is an amazing experience. This particular resort offers everything needed for a nice tranquil retreat, great food, Mountain Views, relaxing nooks and lounges, hiking trail, golf and a nice bar looking over a cliff. What more does one need to wind down or hang out with friends? I really enjoyed this place and can't wait to come back with family and friends.

    Wow, what a great place! Right at two hours from Birmingham, AL, so a pretty easy run. The last 25…read moremiles are so take you through Mentone on the back roads and it is rather pleasant (as long as the GPS holds out). We went to use Amex Hilton free night benefits and they were kind enough to up-grade us to the side of the facility with the better views and a balcony. The staff were very pleasant and accommodating. The pool an hot tub looked really inviting, but it was just a little too cold for me to take the dip (I regret that decision now btw). Be sure to call ahead to ask about the amenities. For example, the hotel has its own six-hole course that I think you can play for free. Had I known, I'd of brought my clubs an booked a t-time. My wife went to the spa and said it was great.

    This is a really nice hotel in the middle of nowhere Alabama. I chose it because it's about halfway…read morein between Huntsville and Chattanooga, which worked out well for my baseball road trip. The staff here is so friendly and the breakfast is better than I've experienced at any other Hampton inn. Biscuits every day, southern style gravy, berry waffles, or chocolate waffles (not both on the same day), it's so good. Housekeeping every other day with full service every fourth. It's good that way. I never had any trouble parking or with construction noises. There are very few spaces in front so you'll need to park out back and either walk around or use your key to get in the building. Some spaces are taken up by construction trailers but I still saw plenty of parking. Price is not too bad, in dollars or points, especially if you book well ahead of time. My room was quiet despite being right next to the elevator, further rooms are likely even quieter. Unfortunately all they had available when I selected my room was right next to elevator on second floor or same room on fourth floor which also had adjoining room. I figured second floor without adjoining room would be quieter and was right. It was fine. All in all a very nice hotel, not much nearby though since this is rural Alabama. Chains and a couple mom and pop shops in downtown scottsboro a couple miles away.

    Great little hotel. Clean, rooms are nice, and the staff is very responsive. I have stayed there…read moreseveral times.
