“the overall stay was disappointing. We got there early so couldn't check in but told us a room with two beds and a balcony would be "assigned" to us. When we returned 12 hours later, the room had not been assigned. The next day, after returning to our room, it had not been made up. Called down to get coffee & shampoo, but they didn't end up coming to the room. So I went to the front counter to ask. Overall, I would not want to stay there again. Not a good, relaxing experience.”

• Rooms were quiet even though very close to the Interstate.
• A very worn Courtyard which is badly in need of a make-over.

“Close to the Interstate, the room was very quiet. On the negative side, the decor was dated, the mattress needs updating to the new super Marriott bed, and when I showed a particularly disgustingly stained drinking glass - which was wrapped in the Sanitized paper - to the Operations Manager upon check out, he was incredibly blase about it. Money well wasted here. Avoid if you can.”

• The staff was extremely friendly and helpful
• The road construction next to the hotel made access very difficult

“Very nice hotel in a bad location. It was difficult to get in and out of this hotel due to the massive road construction project on two sides of the hotel. When the construction is over (if ever, we are talking about Atlanta here), there would be no reason not to choose this hotel if staying in downtown Atlanta. The one disappointment of this hotel is that there are no refrigerators or microwaves in the rooms. Most hotels of this class provide those standard.”

• The grounds were maintained beautifully.
• Road construction completely surrounded hotel which made it hard to find entrance.

“We were very happy with this hotel. There was even a wedding party there during our stay. We would go back and plan to in the future. Very convenient to everything in the city.”

• Conveniently located.
• Thin walls, room next to elevator, no restaurant.

“Moderate hotel that is conveniently located near Atlantic Mall, short walk to MARTA train station. No restaurant except for breakfast and no luxuries I expect from business class hotels. Clean, safe place to sleep right off of the interstate highway, but not much else to recommend this place.”

• Comfortable, nicely furnished, large room, and convenient to interstate.
• Room frig which was placed in room by request did not work. Commode wouldn't stop running unless you jiggled handle.

“It suited my purposes perfectly and was very comfortable and conveniently located to all the places I wanted to go. I would definitely stay there again.”

• Located close to Ga tech.
• There was no free breakfast for the kids, so we had to pay an extra $25.00 for breakfast.

“This hotel was very clean and easy access on and off the interstate. Also very close to Ga. Tech. I just wish it would have had a free breakfast for the kids. It was not very kid friendly with no indoor pool for the winter.”

• Friendly staff, great location, clean, and comfortable.
• No continental breakfast. breakfast cost 12 dollars a person and it made my girlfriend sick where she had to stay in the bathroom for an entire day.

“Overall, the hotel was a great buy. The location places you at an interstate fork that can easily place you at opposite ends of Atlanta in minutes. It is also located in Midtown. The staff was helpful, suggestive and polite. The next time I'm in Atlanta I'm sure to stay there.”

• The hotel location was excellent and centrally located to everything.
• The staff was rude when I called for directions to the hotel when I was lost due to the detour from the Interstate.

“The hotel was decorated very nicely and provided nice free activities (i.e. internet). The buffet was expensive considering the average hotel has a continental breakfast that's included with the price of the room. This hotel didn't operate that way. Our room didn't have a refrigerator. If the room had a refrigerator, the room would have met all of our expectations. The refrigerator could be located under the coffee pot area (just a suggestion). The staff could have better since of directions; know more about the area; be willing to provide information when asked or better yet, volunteer information.”

• Flashing light in smoke alarm.

“Our overall stay was great. There is road construction going on at this time, which made getting into and out of the hotel interesting. The only other complaint was the smoke alarm had a constant flashing white light that was annoying when trying to go to sleep. It was not noticeable in the daytime. Service was acceptable, as was the room in general.”

• Hotel levies hefty charge for morning breakfast.

“This hotel is either new or newly revamped with plush carpeting, updated fixtures and upscale appointments all in the heart of Atlanta. It's conveniently located off of I-75/I-85 and near the new Atlantic Station shopping district (Ikea, Target, Publix, movies, restaurants, etc). Very friendly staff who greet customers with a smile. Either side of hotel will provide great views of Atlanta's ever-expanding skyline.”

• Room was very mall, not enough towels, coffeemaker broke, no free breakfast, rude staff, old room.

“The rooms where every small and tight, if you open the door to hang your clothes then you blocked the entrance to the exit door. Everything in the room was old and felt gross. There was not enough towels and where was the shower cap that should be in the room? At 9:00 a.m. the cleaning people start knocking on the door to get us out to clean. What ever happen to 12:00 check out? The coffee maker was broke and I feel I wasted my weekend, time and money.”

• Close to downtown.
• The bathrooms were not clean.

“The hotel was an okay place to stay. I was very disatisfied when I got settled in and noticed that the tub had pubic hair in it. I was moved to 2 additional rooms before getting a clean bathroom. The hotel is a smoke free facility. It has a laundry facility which was good. All of the staff was pleasant expect the night supervisor who didn't seem to care that the bathrooms were nasty. A lady worker was nice and slipped my family 4 coupons to their morning breakfast buffet which we all really appreciated. The free computer access, printer and free wireless access was very nice to have. There was an outdoor pool but it was too cold to swim but my 6 year old appreciated the indoor hot tub that was 3.5 ft deep and I appreciated the fact that it was not too big. If you take away the experience that I had with the tubs my overall experience was fine. I liked that it was in midtown which is litarlly only 5 mins from downtown. We were able to experience Atlanta but were not in the hustle and bustle of the fast city. The photos on the internet of the hotel really don't do the hotel justice. The location is only 10 mins from the Historic MLK sight, 10 mins Busy B's (an excellent soul food restaurant) and about 20 mins from the Lenox Mall. Our cheer team stayed at the Hyatt which was a downtown and we were able to get to the Hyatt in 5-7 mins depending on traffic. The great thing about the hotel is that parking was free. The breakfast buffet was a little pricy and one downfall was that the bar was closed on the weekend which sucked. All of the staff were great except the one person. After the general manager heard of the problem the following day I thought he could have had more concern that his hotel tubs were unclean.”

• The snacks/food is ridiculously overpriced.

“Overall, I enjoyed staying at this hotel. It was my third time and as always, it was a great stay. I am so glad the onsite parking is free. Many other hotels in the Atlanta area that are Downtown and close to Downtown have either paid parking or valet parking, which really doesn't give the guests much of a choice.”

• Expensive, no breakfast.

“Though the motel was very clean and nicely decorated, it was too expensive for what I got. There was not a refrigerator or microwave in room though there was ironing board, coffee maker, and hairdryer. The staff was fairly friendly but I doubt the sincerity. When we asked about walking to Marta and Piedmont Park we got the answer, "Oh, its not far," but I doubt that person ever walked it because it was far and was not an easy walk in 90 degree weather uphill! They had a wonderful breakfast but charged $10 per person. The room was a little small and there was no balcony. It was all really ok, I just feel that they overcharged. If the breakfast had been included I would have been much happier!”
