Not yet, maybe another time
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/18/09
We are reasonably close to Jackson and were looking for a one night get away for the wife's birthday. She looked at the web site and booked one saturday night. We checked in and found the lobby was excellent but that's where it ended. The remainder of the place in under renovation. The rooms remind me of the old motor inns of years gone ...

My immediate needs were met
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/07/08
This is an old hotel, which has a lot of old beauty in it. However, it is not updated with new curtains and carpet. Yet, it is pet friendly, which is what I needed. We were delighted to see milk bones on the registration desk. Many guests had their pets as over a million people had to evacuate southeast louisiana. The service was excellent. Our needs were met. The hotel was just purchased by new owners who are planning to renovate.
I disliked the room commodation it were old and dirty. The drapers were old and hanging off the hooks. The carpet on the floor was awful. Our church convention were using this hotel as an overflow in 2007 and the members complained everyday about the lack of a/c and the smell of the hotel. We complained to the helpers at the front desk but their ...

There is no way I will ever spend the nigh in this hotel
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/28/08
I dislike the hotel as a whole. It was not well kept, it had rust spots, the air conditioning would could not be turned down. The swimming pool awful. You had to go 3 floors to get ice. The towels took an hour to arrive. The location was good and the car garage.
This place is absolutely disgusting. I'm sitting in the lobby right now, which is the only nice thing about the Edison Walthall. We were slighty impressed by the lobby, but why was it so empty? We found out when we got to the room. The first thing we noticed was the smell. It smelled like ...

I'll stay elsewhere
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/18/08
I like a cool room. You can NOT control the air from your room. Many travelers had to open their doors to receive cool air. When I called down to the lobby to complain about heat coming from the air unit I was told just to cut it off because it would be cool tonight.

My room was nice, the only thing is, i wished it had refrigerator like i requested, but other than that, very, very nice. i will stay there again. The only ...

Miserable
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/29/07
I drove 8 hours, and very excited to be in Jackson for a JSU football homecoming game. My night was so miserable and cold that I did not rest well. The floors were filthy. The room as a whole was a dirty mess. So instead of staying 2 nights as planned, I stayed one. The lady at the front desk was very nice, she even apologized for the hotel. Never ...
