We had an excellent stay. The hotel was clean, our room was spotless, the shower head was high enough for tall people (and the water pressure and temperature were also great,) and there was a free breakfast buffet including a Belgian waffles. There is also a decent restaurant within walking distance, and plenty of other restaurants nearby. It's a nine minute drive from Ohio University. We will definitely stay there again.

Dear Kris, Thank you for taking the time in writing a review. I am delighted to see we met your expectations during your visit with us. One of my favorite breakfast items is the Belgian waffles as well. We offer regular and a flavored for the batter and my favorite is the blueberry. If you have a favorite for the flavor next time you check in with us mention it to the front desk and we would be happy to let the breakfast attendant know so she can have it made for you.

Dear Linda, I'm happy we were able to meet your expectations during your visit. I saw that you mentioned your daughter wasn't able to check in for you. Our policy states that if the person trying to check in is not on the reservation, we cannot check them in without contacting the guest on the reservation or having them come into check in. We are sorry if this inconvenienced you in any way. We can add guests name if you contact the hotel, and we can verify a few things on your reservation. Hopefully this helps you with any future travels.

The beds and pillows were uncomfortable and the sheets sounded like Dr office bed paper. There was a high pitched ringing noise all night and morning like a hot water boiler heating up. Didn’t even try the breakfast so can’t comment. The options in this are are slim pickings but I won’t pick this one again.

The property was nice. Staff in the afternoon checking us in were great. She gave us a great recommendation to order pizza (Avalanche Pizza, OMG, so good!). Room was clean and cozy, though mattresses were too firm for our liking. Hot breakfast in the morning was good. We utilized the pool and that only complaint we have are the vents in the pool room are DISGUSTING. They are rusted and appear to have mold on them and mold looks as if it were blown against the wall near the vents. Besides the vents/potential mold needing addressed, we were happy with our stay. If we come back to Athens, we will stay there again.
