BEST WESTERN Seminole Inn, Tallahassee

Anyone who's pounded out endless highway miles, knows how vital a clean room and friendly front desk person can be. And this little hideaway really comes through. Attentive staff, shiny clean rooms and a cozy sparkling swimming pool - with occasional vibrant chameleons cavorting along the fencing. make this place really special. The complementary breakfast also features some of the best and freest flowing coffee south of the Mason-Dixon and piping home-made (you make 'em) waffles. And for a stellar night out, hop back into town for Po'Boys, real home-style Cajun cuisine at very affordable prices. (Just remember, you gotta drive back home after!) We also enjoyed being able to use their very serviceable washer-and-dryer and unpack some of those heft bags the road produces. In short, small place, big memories. I'd recommend it highly to anyone - especially if you're sick of glitter and want simple down-home comfort and quiet.
