Staff were so friendly and it looked nice enough. The other guests were a little loud and the area around was farther from downtown than what I thought.

The hallways and rooms had an unpleasant smell. It was a mix between feet and wet basement. The carpet and sheets seemed almost damp. There was a toothbrush left in the shower from a previous guest. ugh

Sofas and chairs had stains, they looked very used (sunken-in pillows). Broken toilet seats and stained mattresses. Yeah I'll definitely choose another hotel for my future Athens stays.

I found the door from hallway toward the pool to unsecured. As I was able to pull open without my roomkey. Using that hallway to enter the patio. Once decided to return into building. Passkey unsuccessful. Gate ajar, yet I am too large to fit. Now, what?! Fortunately passkey worked for the same hallway staircase door.

The hot tub inside the room wouldn’t fill but a little bit of hot water neither would the shower. So the hot tub was pointless. Room could have been a little cleaner but staff at the hotel was nice and friendly.

Old and run down. Near UGA, which was the reason we booked. We had a suite; the couch was so disgusting that we could not even sit on it. The bed was nice and comfortable. However, only 3 pillows for a king bed and thin blankets.
