This property is in a great location. It is an easy on/easy off from the highway. There are many restaurants nearby, including a few within walking distance. There are also many shopping options. The front desk staff is very friendly and the breakfast selection is excellent. The hotel is also pet friendly!

Nadia, Heather and Karen. All three of them deserve a raise and promotion. From. The moment I talked to them on and off for about a week it was amazing. The southern hospitality was amazing, they helped me get a rate that beat my Expedia one. They helped my elderly auntie get the perfect room. They made sure to note every detail I asked for. Only down side was room 113 wasn't clean. How ever Karen took ownership of it, apologized and helped make our day. It wasn't about the money that made everything great. These three seemlessly helped make my sons, Auntie, cousins and myself our stay memorable. If we ever come back to Athens Alabama, definitely will be coming back here. Thank yall!

The place was easy to get to and clean. For the money we spent this was a good place to stay for one night. The property could use some upgrades but was clean and convenient.
