The inn's position makes it a quiet base for exploring downtown Macon, only a few miles away from a variety of bars, eateries, and cultural landmarks. Music enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to The Allman Brothers Band Museum, while history buffs can visit the renowned Ocmulgee Mounds National Historical Park and the 19th-century Hay House, both just a short drive away.

What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“I ended up here by previously being disappointed with another hotel. This place was my life saver. The staff was professional, kind and the room was so peaceful. The room was very Clean with a comfortable bed and had everything I needed for a wonderful stay while in town for business. Convenient to restaurants and my job. I'd definitely stay with this hotel again.”
“I am very pleased when i came in on the 22nd to check in lana the white girl was very nice at the front desk she made me feel welcomed and comfortable helped me with my stuff i dont know what i would do with out her because if they had no rooms i wouldnt of had nowhere to go tonight i was very pleased with my room when i checked in”
“First off, the beds are so much softer than most hotels, very comfortable. It seems the main AC is out, but that didn't bother us as our room AC was great. The wifi gave us no problems. Love the funky shaped pool! It was a nice temperature and SO CLEAN. I don't think I've seen a hotel pool this clean before! Bathroom and hotel room are also spotless. The carpet is mismatched but who cares?! They're definitely renovating it and making it even better. The location is great for us, evacuating from FL, and they are very pet friendly and don't charge huge pet fees. The staff is very nice and I appreciate the security of their operations, for example the wristbands for the pool which are clearly mentioned in the GIANT RULES left in the room. It's a little loud during the day, but I can't hear my neighbors. They also have guest coin laundry! A life saver. I couldn't connect my PS4 to the TV because of its age (? maybe? it's possible I didn't do it right), but that's the only thing I can think of to improve on. Great spot for budget stay and pet friendly rooms. Thanks for the stay!”
