I stayed at the Quality Inn & Suites in Pearl–Jackson from October 10th to the 13th. Overall, the stay was decent, and the room itself was better than many of the other places currently available in Jackson. However, there were a few issues worth noting.
First, while the bed was made up on my last night, the room was not properly cleaned during my stay — the trash and other items were left untouched for several days. That was disappointing, especially considering the rates charged that weekend.
Speaking of rates, I found that it would have been cheaper to book online. The hotel appeared to take advantage of the HBCU homecoming weekend by charging me an additional $25 per night for the first two nights. It’s understandable that rates fluctuate, but transparency and fairness matter to guests who travel often.
In short, this is a place I would consider staying at again because of its relative quality and location. However, I would definitely double-check online prices first, as it seems the hotel won’t go out of its way to help you save money if there’s an opportunity to charge more.
