The Bent Tree was located right where we needed to be, the front office staff were friendly and helpful. Our room definitely needed some maintenance. The sink faucet was loose on the sink, so when you would turn on the water, the entire faucet swiveled. The shower head was only about 5' high, and the diverter would not fully shut off the tub spout so you only got about half pressure. The rooms definitely need room-darking curtains as the plastic mini-blinds don't keep out much light. But with all that we slept very well, and would consider them again if in the area.

The Party Hotel/ Management Looks the other Way

Well let's put it like this if you want to get sleep you might want to go some where else, but if you like to party all night and get loud with a bunch of coworkers or friends this is the place that don't mind that kinda behavior. You can play loud music and have a good time at the Bent Tree. But if you suffer from anxiety then you may want to stay far away, it's not the room or the service or the cleanliness they are spot on with that. Very clean very polite, at the front desk. Also there is one huge pot hole at the front watch out for that. Other than the party that they allow to go on right next door and in front of your room. You may want to take a pic of your room and window when you first get there and record anything that may come back and you get blamed for, like a break and crack in a window. So who pays for it? Of course the one that rents the room to the broken window. They wouldn't possibly think anyone else could have done it. But when they threaten to call police and press charges you have no choice. Don't call police on the disturbance. Hell I wouldn't either retaliation is not something to sign up for so being they have our name address license plate and phone number we have to pay for it otherwise they can say and do it give our info to who ever they want they are not from here by the way you can't understand half the words they say. Other than all that Yeah it's a great place to stay one night I wouldn't recommend 2 nights. We stayed 1 to many nights

Great getaway in Emory

We rented the family suite. While it could do with some updating, the suite was incredibly spacious. It was clean and tidy, offering a nice living area for a good sized group to visit and catch up. There is a very handy kitchenette with a full size fridge along with two large bedrooms each with their own bathroom. The beds were very comfortable. Both bedrooms were very very very spacious. I am confident we will stay here again and again for family gatherings.
