Southern Pines Inn - Homerville, Georgia

James H.

I'll start with check-in. There is no lobby. I suspect the non english speaking owners live in what was once a quaint lobby. Now, the "lobby" is a tiny un-airconditioned room that maybe two people can fit in. There is a glass partition to do the transaction. It has a pay by the hour hotel feel. The lady was very nice and spoke passable english, unlike the lady that answered the phone.
The exterior is clean and appears somewhat well taken care of. It's a little dusty, but there is a truck stop right next door, so that's understandable.
The rooms.....
HORRIBLE!
I've stayed in worse places, but they were in the Middle East. During wartime.
The sheets and pillow cases smelled clean but had stains. Almost like they've never heard of bleach. There is only limited maintenance done, and what is done is done by someone with zero home improvement skills. The microwave in my room didn't work. The refrigerator worked great but was old and dirty. Carpets are stained and cake with God knows what. Cushions are stained beyond belief. I'll let the pics tell the story there.
Overall, it's cheap, quiet. But unless you absolutely have no other choice, I would continue on to something better. With that being said, there is a convenience store and a Huddle House. The town does have at least one Door Dash driver.

Very rude! I ask if I could see a room before I payed for it and lady said NO turned off lights and went back inside. Rooms must be as nasty as her!

Calling this place a 'dump' would be gracious. First of all, the AC didn't work. Even on the lowest setting it never got below 79/80 degrees in the room. A room for three people came with two pillows, one on each bed. The woman at the front desk argued for ten minutes before allowing us another pillow but denied us extra toilet paper when we told her there was less than half a roll. Also, and what really upset me, once we had checked in and I went to log into my computer, I found no Wi-Fi. I went to the front desk, and she said, "Oh, yeah, our Wi-Fi was turned off a month ago." I pointed out she should explain that to people before they check in and she said if they don't ask it isn't her problem. I assured her it is, as most everyplace have Wi-Fi and she basically just screwed us over. She refused a refund. Added to all of that, if you make the mistake of staying there, do not look at the mattress. The fitted sheet came free, and I was trying to fix it and the mattress has what appears to be blood stains. The water in the skin dripped all light. The fridge and microwave did not work, and the television (all three channels) kept turning itself off and on. Pretty sure the stains in the shower corners were black mole. This place should be shut down.

This place looks very quiant. I was beyond stunned when I went into the room. It's a total dive. The room was absolutely filthy!! I requested another room. She was very accommodating. This room was just a little better. I got my cleaning supplies from the car and cleaned and freshened up the room and was able to tolerate it.

It was a quiet nights sleep.

Upon check out, we watched the owners, or managers clear out the vacated rooms. Neither of them had any cleaning equipment or clean linens and towels. It's obvious that they don't put any money back into this business. It has so much potential.

Homerville is my regular stop for me on my way between Jacksonville And Atlanta. This property is very reasonable. Good staff !! if you want a quiet, decent, clean place along the way , stop in and get good night of stay. There is convenient store, restaurants in walk in distance.

Didn't expect much and got even less. The room was filthy. The mattresses and box springs were old and stained. The sheets and linens were stained as well. There was mold in the bathroom above the shower. We stayed because it was late and rainy and we were on our bike. We thought the nastiness of the room was better than a wreck on the dark country road. We slept on top of the bedding in our clothes. We couldn't wait to get out of there.

We had to stay here because it was the only room we could find within 150 miles due to hurricane Michael.

The bad - It was absolutely filthy. Carpet looks like a dirt field. Walls were poorly patched and stained. Bathroom door was almost black with dirt. Dead bugs all over (at least they were dead). The only reason we stayed is because it was almost midnight AND we had our own linen from our trip to NC.
The good - A/C worked great.

I will never stay here again.

This hotel is in a good location situated behind a truck stop and Huddle House Restaurant. Close to a shipper of berries that refridgerated trailer truck drivers pick up there loads. Appearance outside is inviting. Clean rooms inside with somewhat comfortable beds. Unlimited television channels. Only complaint is the shower pressure in my room #114 was horrible. After two or three days without a shower, typical of being an over- the road driver; I was expecting a powerful shower to clean all the 'road sludge' that accumulates on your body. Not impressed with the quality of the shower.
