Bottom of the Barrel, Even for the Middle of Nowhere

Granted, there are only a handful of options for a stay in Bainbridge, but the Super 8 is among the most dreadful of Wyndham Worldwide's Most Dreadful.
Your experience starts in the lobby, adorned with kitschy Hindu decorations. You'll see your credit card charged for the entire stay up front, with your receipt presented upon the grimy reception counter. Perhaps the operators are trying to keep guests the duration of their reservations the only way they know how.
Your room will be decorated in paint reminiscent of infant fecal matter, with accents of rust and chrome plate. On the whole, your room will be dingier than the homes of Georgia's poorest residents. Should you want to take advantage of the property's Wi-Fi, camp out in the lobby-- the signal drops off dramatically once you venture towards the guest rooms.
Wyndham's TripRewards properties are a mixed bag. For every new-build Days Inn or HoJo, there are seedy Super 8's and tired old Ramadas. Perhaps its time Wyndham began terminating franchises of underperforming properties, starting with this one.
