Rooms
Suites are airy and understated, each equipped with free Wi-Fi, a flat-screen TV, and a kitchenette; some units add a separate living area for extra space. The all-suite layout and included kitchenettes make the property well-suited to travelers staying multiple nights who want to prepare their own meals.

Location & Surroundings
The hotel sits about 2 miles from the Enterprise Train Depot museum and roughly 10 miles from Fort Rucker, making it a practical base for visitors connected to the military installation. Nearby points of interest include the Boll Weevil Monument, Enterprise Parks & Recreation, and the Two By Two Petting Zoo, while a cluster of casual restaurants -- including Huey's Walking Tacos, Santa Fe Cattle Company, La Jarocha, and Cafe Roma -- sit within a mile or two.
Best for
This hotel suits extended-stay visitors, Fort Rucker-related travelers, and road-trippers with pets thanks to its kitchenette-equipped suites, guest laundry, and pet-friendly policy. It also works well for budget-conscious travelers and families who want casual dining options and a petting zoo or park nearby without paying for a full-service hotel.
Travel tips
Having a car is recommended since the hotel is off Highway 84 amid farmland, with the nearest airport (Dothan Regional) roughly 23 miles away. Plan on driving about 10 miles to reach Fort Rucker and around 2 miles to the Enterprise Train Depot museum and Boll Weevil Monument, and check the pool schedule in advance since it's seasonal.
What guests say
Guests consistently praise the friendly, attentive front-desk staff, repeatedly naming individual employees for going out of their way to help with check-in issues, lost luggage, and general comfort. The well-equipped gym, in-room kitchenette/refrigerator setup, and reasonable pricing are also frequently highlighted as strong points for extended stays. On the negative side, some reviewers reported inconsistent bed-type availability (booked king not honored), overly soft or worn mattresses, weak shower pressure, and occasional cleanliness lapses such as leftover trash or a malfunctioning ice machine.
