Holiday Inn Express & Suites Thomasville by IHG
Friendly staff and clean room. Breakfast was very good- eggs, sausage, biscuit, cereal and pancakes were some of what was offered. Location is great- near to several dining options including Longhorn and What-a-burger. Publix is also nearby. I would definitely stay here again.

Econo Lodge Thomasville
We stay here a couple times a year when we are in town visiting grandchildren. It is nothing fancy at all, but we only sleep there and it's clean and affordable.
