I traveled through here and saw their billboards and decided to stay. I liked how the owner was very friendly and helped us find the local attractions and restaurants. There was free wifi and breakfast, so that satisfied my family and me. Excellent use of my money for the service I received!

On our way to Florida during our family trip, we saw the billboard and decided to try this Inn, as it was late and we decided to break for the day. We were pleasantly surprised that the place was renovated recently, clean rooms, new and comfy furniture. There was a 24 hr Waffle House next door which helped our hungry group! Morning breakfast at the Inn was simple- coffee, juice and muffins, but that was sufficient considering how reasonably priced they were. Parking was ample and it helped as we had our boat in tow. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Will definitely stay here again.

Clean, decent mattress, guest services showed me the room before renting, very courteous. Motel is older but clean and maintained. No frills but all of my essentials were there. Price point was ok for no frills, and there was free wifi and coffee even in the late am. Will stay there again.

I traveled through here in January 2019, and needed a room to stay in. I decided to stay in Mountain Inn. I was traveling with my family and knew that I would be safe. This place has light like a fortress. I also enjoyed the comfortable bed and the front desk clerk Daksha was super friendly and made our day. I would stay again if I’m in the nearby area!

This was my far the best experience I have ever had at a cheap hotel. It was better than some of the more expensive places I have stayed. My boyfriend and I cave a lot and use hotels as a place to sleep and shower off. We don’t need an extravagant hotel. This room was roomie, warm water , comfortable bed. They even brought us warm towels once they had some washed. And the customer service was great.

Budget hotel. $50 for a room the Saturday before Thanksgiving was more than fair. Desk attendant was friendly. Room was clean and didn't smell like smoke. The linens weren't brand new but they were clean and did their job. The heater worked like it was supposed to. It also has a decent location. There is a Waffle House within walking distance. Just a bit down the road you can find a grocer, a dollar store, and other fast food places. Overall I can't complain and will probably try to make it to Monteagle before I get too tired on the way back so I can stay there again.

Pricing at the motel is great but they do have bedbugs in some of the rooms. The whole thing needs treated. They do spray rooms with killer for them but it seems they just come back.

My son and I were unsure about staying. However the American women behind the counter was very nice. Rooms were clean it was an average room. For a 1 night stay. A place to sleep, shower and go. Sticky buns, coffee, O.J. is the breakfast.
