Super 8 by Wyndham Cookeville

8/10 Good

"Our stay was exactly what we needed! Look if I had a reason to complain, the only 2 things I could possibly call a complaint is Getting into the property was a bit confusing for a second & the TV remote needed new batteries. The breakfast was very pleasing, had a few options for different likes. The coffee was amazing! And I dont say that hardly ever!! All staff that we had contact with were very nice & very helpful! I should've asked for remote batteries...."

"Staff was super friendly, bed was comfortable. AC worked well. I was pleasantly surprised to see a microwave and mini fridge. Room was very quiet. Had a great night rest after traveling all day.
