Homestays in Mississippi, United States

I have to say first that if you are looking for an upscale hotel, this is not it. But if you need a convenient, economical, and need to park something BIG (there is space for large trucks), this is for you. That being said, we had an excellent stay. The owners/managers went out of their way to see that we were comfortable and taken care of. Great customer service! This is an older hotel with doors open to the outside. It was clean, mattresses were extremely comfortable, great water pressure and lots of hot water, coffee and free breakfast (didn’t eat breakfast so I don’t know what it consisted of, but the coffee was good), no carpet (a plus!), lots of English and Spanish language TV stations, and a well-functioning handicapped accessible room (one of our party is in a wheelchair). The area was safe and there were many food options within walking distance. There is also a washer/dryer for guest use. So while it wasn’t fancy, it took care of all of our needs plus some. I would stay there again without hesitation! Thank you!

When I first arrived at the desk to check in, I was greeted very cordially by Constance and Hannah, who were very pleasant and friendly, polite, and professional. They took great care in helping me get the room that was just right for me! The room was clean, modern, nicely decorated, with everything you'd need for a pleasant stay - refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker and coffee (they also have free coffee in the office), plenty of fresh, clean towels), nice lighting (they actually have the more expensive 'yellowish' LED lights that create light that is better for your eyes - some lesser hotels have the stark, unpleasant 'blue-ish' LED lights. So, even the lighting in the room was nice. :) The TV is very nice, with many, many satellite channels, and they have a digital clock that allows guests to plug in their USB devices so they can wake up to their favorite music, or news. They offer a REALLY great breakfast, including breakfast sandwiches, bagels, cereal, juice, milk, and much more. What really impressed me, though, is that when I said I'd be leaving too early to take advantage of the breakfast, Constance and Hannah replied, ”Oh, well, if that's the case, you can come get breakfast anytime you want. The office is open 24 hours a day. That kind statement really made my day, because when I travel, I rarely get to take advantage of the free breakfast offered by many of the hotels, since I usually get on the road around 4AM. Thank you for that, ladies!!!! I also wanted to mention Joshua, who made checkout really easy with HIS professional, polite, and friendly help. I highly recommend this hotel. It's nice, but the staff there make it REALLY special. Thanks to all three of you!

We had a wonderful stay at Anchuca. The staff came in on Thanksgiving Day to check us in. We stayed in the Queen's Slave Quarters and the room was perfect! You do hear the sound of the gurgling fountain all night long but it wasn't an issue for us. The sheets are super soft and the bed was incredibly comfortable! Breakfast was truly delicious and the coffee w/cinnamon was divine! We definitely recommend staying there on your visit to Vicksburg.

Absolutely fantastic! Located in the heart of historic Vicksburg, Steele's Cottage is charming and filled with history -- truly a walk back into the last century. If only walls could talk! It is also only about a 5-minute drive to the National Historic Military Park, which is well worth a visit. Vicksburg was everything a civil war history geek like myself could hope for! The room was immaculate and filled with historical tidbits! The property manager (Tonya) was excellent and beyond helpful when a problem about reservation dates went cross-ways. (Totally my fault -- I entered them wrong). Breakfast was delicious, and served in the beautiful Duff Green mansion. The tour of that historic home afterward was very interesting! We enjoyed ourselves so much that we extended our stay another day, and will not hesitate to return and/or recommend to others.
