Those familiar with this hotel have commented that this property was once actually a Hampton Inn location. Comfy beds seem to be a hangover legacy of this former incarnation and indeed, the vast majority of guests found the mattresses here to be incredibly soft.

This hotel welcomes pets with open arms, a policy that guests – especially those on long-haul moves – really appreciated. Also, its location – right near the birthplace of Elvis and close to downtown Tupelo – was convenient for those hoping to explore the area.

While the breakfast here was tasty, most felt it was very carb heavy and would have welcomed a few meat or egg options to lighten things up.

Many reported less than tidy conditions in their rooms, with sticky floors an issue. Most also noted that the common area of this hotel was not as sparkling as they would have liked.

A number of guests noted broken and missing amenities within their rooms. Missing coffee makers were an issue as were out of action ironing boards and broken toilet seats.
