Room was clean, bed was comfortable but bathroom was very small. Housekeeping was very noisy and was yelling across the hallway from each other early in the morning. Very unprofessional. We just finished moving and we were trying to sleep in that morning.

Overall this is a good value property. You cannot walk easily to downtown Athens or the five points area. Parking was easy and free. There was an odd smell in our room the second night but management immediately moved us to a different room.
