So expensive for so little. Cleaning every other day for that hotel rate? And asking for cleaning and being ignored? Seriously y’all need to clean that place up, get some workers who are actually nice people, or you’re not going to last long. Truly disappointing.

Very close to the Athens Classic Center, shopping, and dining. The rooms were clean and had a cool retro vibe. Checking in was easy and the front desk person was very friendly! I would stay here again!

Older motel with a fairly recent remodel that is fun and quirky. Best part is its walkable proximity to downtown Athens. Hotel was clean and staff were friendly. Good value for the money too.

Great stay.

Love this hotel. Nice location a couple streets back off broad street. Can walk or quickly drive downtown or to campus. The decor is lovely. Pet friendly. Nice breakfast. A grab and go market available also.

Great location. The lobby where the coffee shop is located is cool and a good place to hang out. Disappointed their bar was not open during my stay. But otherwise good value for Athens and great location. I would return for those reasons.

This is a fine hotel and walkable to downtown Athens, but it’s definitely not a 4-star hotel. It’s a solid 3-start level or maybe even 2.5. The property is just not nice enough to call it 4-stars. It’s a convenient location. Parking is $12/day self park. It feels more like an apartment complex than a hotel. Staff were perfectly friendly but it’s not 4-star type service.
