“Cleanliness and physical condition are among the most important components for our guest’s

comfort,” said owner William S. Wellons, Jr. in a press release. “I’m proud that every team member is committed to clean rooms and excellent guest service.”

The Inspector’s “Best of the Inspected,” signifies that Sleep Inn & Suites ranks in the top 25 percent of all AAA inspected hotels in North America.
