Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Marietta

Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Marietta

10/10 Excellent
"I stay here everytime I’m on my way south. The rooms are nice and everyone is so nice and helpful. It’s great too because it’s right off of Rt. 77 and the Ohio river in Marietta. Their breakfast is a good variety. Plenty of parking and it’s well lit so you feel safe. It’s also very close to shopping."
