Read some terrible reviews on this place and was pleasantly surprised when we got there. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the room was clean, smelled fresh, and the beds and pillows were comfortable. The room had a refrigerator and microwave. if you're looking for a no-frills motel that's affordable on Georgis football game weekends, this is a great place. I'd come back.

The location is with walking distance of a restaurant, a bagel and coffee shop. I had inadvertently booked a smoking room, and the staff were able to make the change to non smoking. The service is minimal but adequate.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Location was good for what we needed. The room was very unkempt. Found previous peoples drug materials and whatnot. We get, you get what you pay for, but it seems like this location is cleaned and sanitize properly. Not sure if I’d ever recommend or return back to that place. Hoping for better for them.

Bare minimum motel experience, but safe, quiet and convenient. Good location, short walk to downtown Athens, and bagel place across the street is great for breakfast. Don't forget to ask for the wifi password on arrival. Shower was only very hot or very cold.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
I saw previous reviews and was really worried, but there were no other hotels available nearby for my dates. I brought my own coffee maker, got a non-smoking room, and hoped for the best. It was fine! No bugs, clean sheets and towels, refrigerator, microwave, TV, and internet all worked fine. It was relatively quiet and an easy walk to everywhere I needed to go. Toilet was a little iffy, but it is an older, simple hotel. No breakfast or coffee, and may be a bit of cultural difference that affects the way the owner comes across to some, but both he and his wife were kind and accommodating in all interactions with me. Overall, everything I needed and I have no complaints.

For the price in this area, it was a great place to stay, almost 1/2 of other hotels that same weekend. Not sure about other times of the year when conventions may be in town. Overall I was happy with my stay.

Do not stay at this hotel I have stayed at a lot of hotels in my days. This is the worst by far the room was crap. Burn holes in the sheets and bed cover burn marks on the sinks in the bathroom just the grossest room I have ever stepped into.

I was attacked by bed bugs in the first room. The manager was rude but switched my room but then on the other room, there was a cockroach and a massive hole and stain on the mattress. When I tried to talk to Expedia about this, the representative was also rude. Instead of accommodating me, I was kicked out of the hotel at 1am and was harassed by a homeless man outside of my room and was out in the cold for 30 minutes. I will not be using Expedia again

Requested a refund. It was absolutely disgusting. Walked in and immediately walked out! There were stains on the sheets and blankets. Toothpaste water on the mirror. Food crumbs on everything. And a nugget of WEED on the floor by the nightstand!!!!
