This is probably one of the nicest hotels we have stayed at in Athen, Georgia. It was clean, had a great breakfast, and the rooms were nice with big bathrooms. The location is close to shopping and some good chain restaurants. Everyone likes to stay in the downtown area near the college but I will definitely consider this property next time.

We had a great stay for UGA orientation. The hotel and room was very clean. Ray is the sweetest kindest gentleman. We came down for breakfast late and made sure we had something to eat. The staff at the front test were very kind and helpful as well. Everything is VERY close to the hotel. Which made things very easy. My only regret I didn’t book sooner for “move in weekend” Definitely will be back Amanda D.

This is a beautiful, clean property. My only complaint is the outside noise. High traffic area 24/7. We were on 2nd floor over looking parking lot & facing main high traffic road. Also near trash container & it was emptied about 5:00 am! If you stay on a higher floor, farthest away from these areas it might be better.
