  • It was close to my destination.
  • The hotel room was very musty, smoky and reeked of bad smells.

“Although the hotel room was very conveniently located to my final destination, the room was very unattractive. The room reeked of smoke and the air was very musty smelling. We found a cockroach in the shower and the fridge smelled of rotten eggs. Besides these unappealing features, the beds were comfortable.”

  • The lobby staff was very kind.
  • Lots of kids staying there at the time, very loud as a result.

“Nice overall. No real complaints.”

  • Nothing.
  • Front desk had security screen and unfriendly staff.

“I would expect this hotel in a high crime area. First time I had to talk to front desk staff through a plastic screen and the room had a very bad smell. The bed was also very uncomfortable.”

  • Front desk clerks were friendly and efficient.
  • Parking spaces are very tight.

“My stay was pleasant enough for an inexpensive hotel. But coins on the desk disappeared while I was out for the day and one night at midnight a man knocked on the room door asking for money, ostensibly to help pay a lock smith to get his keys out of a locked truck.”

  • Very knowledgeable staff, easy to communicate with.
  • Air conditioner in room sounded sickly and would not stay on.

“If you want to be near downtown Athens, this hotel is very handy. Also, The Varsity is across the street, so you know you'll have a place to eat! It's a little difficult to find the entrance and parking is a little tight, but once there, you'll find the hotel staff friendly and knowledgeable about Athens. The rooms are old but clean; our only complaint was an air conditioner that never really stayed on. Luckily, it was early spring and not too hot yet.”

“Hotel is in an excellent location to Downtown with easy access to/from main roads. Nice area and ample parking. Good selection for breakfast although room was small. Hotel room was adequate, clean, and serviced well. Staff friendly.”

  • Breakfast was nice enough and room was clean.
  • The new carpet had a very wired smell.

“The hotel reminded me of "motels" I stayed in as a kid in the 70's. They tried to update it with new carpet and decor, but the way the hotel is set up with the door to your room right next to the parking lot makes it very noisy. You have to go to a separate building for the breakfast and it was very cold outside.”

  • The room was clean and the staff were friendly.
  • The breakfast room was too small.

“This hotel was very clean and the staff were friendly. The breakfast dining area was very small and taken up by the hotel cleaning staff with very few seats for actual guests. The only other bad point was the way the housekeepers had to throw their dirty laundry and trash from the second floor down to the first floor which is more of a problem with the hotel design and build than of the staff. I would recommend this hotel and will stay there again if I am in the area.”

  • Convenient location and price.
  • The room was malodorous and it felt a tad unsafe after dark.

“Perfectly friendly staff, clean rooms though somewhat malodorous, mediocre breakfast, but a good price. If you only need a place to sleep it is fine.”

  • The room was big and clean.
  • Milk at breakfast was spoiled; don't like exterior entrance for rooms.

“I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel. I live near the hotel and it didn't appeal to me from the street. The rooms were big and clean. The in room refrigerator and microwave were great.”

  • The room was clean with no musty odor!
  • The ice machine was across the street too far. Head housekeeper rude.

“Before arriving, I was concerned that it might be a shabby place however, I was pleasantly surprised! The location was perfect for me, close to everything downtown and University of Georgia.”
