Super 8 By Wyndham Vicksburg

We were pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and this odor free hotel. The beds were comfortable and everything worked. There was no cover up for smells. The hotel is located right outside the Vicksburg National Military Park, which is where we were going to visit. Coffee was provided. We spent one night and were happy with our stay. The staff and housekeeping were pleasant. For the price, it was a very nice stay. We were on the first floor, so we didn't have to lug suitcases upstairs. The hotel was not crowded when we stayed.

Pillows and beds are comfortable but bedding and towels were old scratchy and small. Amenities were on a par with Motel 6. Full breakfast is 1 granola bar and coffee only. It is a $40 hotel that charges $90. Location is excellent for The National Park though.

I booked the Vicksburg Super 8 around 3 hours before I got there, Midnight. It was about $70 for one night, Monday, July 23. The location is close to Interstate 20 and in proximity to several other budget hotels. The checkin was great, nice guy at the desk, well spoken, prepared and thorough. There is no elevator so I had to go up a flight of stairs, the stairwell needs some work, the carpet especially. The room was close to the stairs so my one night stay was relatively painless! The room was a typical budget product, nothing exceptional. I was annoyed at a lack of a cell phone charger port usually provided on the lamp or electrical socket. The room was not exactly super clean and the linen was getting worn. The TV was nice and the channel selection was excellent. The bathroom was fine, hot water, towels, soap etc. we're good. There is coffee and granola bars in the morning, no breakfast entrees. The coffee was not so great to me, but I'm picky about my coffee. Really I got a better deal in Meridian Mississippi 2 days earlier at the Motel 6 for $50. This Super 8 sort of reflects Vicksburg on general, run down, tired looking. Next time I'll head to Jackson or Meridian when I'm on my way through Mississippi.

The staff was alright and friendly but they were barefooted working and that's just not professional at all. They made our stay very welcoming though. I'll definitely stay again if it comes down to it
