"We had a great 3-day stay at Homewood Suites - Jackson Fondren! The hotel is very modern and well kept. Although I did not use it, the hotel also has a laundry and a large indoor pool. The rooms are very spacious and well equipped for both overnight and extended stays. Having the small kitchen with a full refrigerator, mini stove, sink, and microwave were quite helpful. Although not gated, the parking lot is quite large and has video surveillance. We felt quite safe coming/going at all hours. The full buffet breakfast is tasty and excellent and offers different options daily. The coffee strikes the perfect balance between strength and heat. The staff goes out of their way to be cheerful and helpful. The hotel is well positioned for the multiple medical centers in the area, and for attending functions at both Millsaps and/or Belhaven Colleges. In short, I can't recommend Homewood Suites Fondren highly enough!"

"Older home but super clean. Pros:- Very spacious and can accommodate large families. - The beds are nice and comfortable. - The host was very communicative which I appreciated. - The area is nice, quiet and safe. Cons:- The dryer did not work but the host worked to resolve the issue. - The cleaning crew was still there at our 4pm check in time but were quickly finishing up. Therefore, we were able to check in around 4:15pm."
