Tough to get to. Old but economical. They are in a hard to get to location because of the freeway .
My experience at Magnolia in was great I stayed there August 12th the service and stay was great
They need to retire the Flag they have its literally torn in half.
I love how this hotel is tucked in along interstate. It's right along interstate but you hardly notice it and its safe and quiet. Rooms are nice & clean
Magnolia Inn is right off I 59 little tricky to get there but not there fault. Anyway rooms are neat. For an inexpensive hotel. What I actually enjoyed was the round table and 2 chairs in the room plus a desk. Because I (myself) prefer to eat my meals at a table and not have to eat sitting on the bed i am going to sleep in. Besides that it's just uncomfortable sitting on the side of the bed to eat. You may like to. But I don't. Bed was comfortable and ac kept the room cold. There is microwave and a small fridge in the rooms. There is both drink and snack machines on the property. But at the end of the driveway there is a gas station with a small store. In walking distance. Also you have choice between Popeyes chicken, Mc Donald's, Crystal's or Cracker Barrel are all in walking distance of the hotel. Plus there is a liquor store for those who partake in there beverages (should say bottles) in walking distance. Hotel is quiet. But no pets unless you have correct paperwork for the animal (so i was told). There is no morning breakfast at the hotel. But on Wednesday morning you can drop your laundry off to be washed, dried, and folded. Not sure of the cost. For this service. Or when it comes back. But it's available. You drop it off in what used to be a dining room. So i say if passing threw. Check them out. Have fun. We enjoyed our stay. They do have handicap accessible rooms available if needed. Place is clean. Thank you.

The inn was a great place to stay the front desk name bruno helped me with all my problems thanks bruno will visit again
Very clean, super nice owner/front desk staff. Can’t beat it for the price. I would definitely stay here again.
Desk clerk/personnel was excellent. I had questions which she answered very knowledgeably. Slight communication issue on my part with charges on my card, but she resolved it quickly for me. Awesome service all-round.
Great place and great people would recommend anyone to stay ....

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
