The staff is nice and the hotel is ok, but the rooms should be cleaned more thoroughly.

The service was very good and eager to help. The rooms were great and had very affordable rates. I wish you would find rooms like this all the time while traveling.

If you can't book a room here for under $100, don't spend your money on a night's stay. Our room was over $200 per night and the experience was just this side of awful. Had a series of booking issues (booked two rooms - exactly the same and got two different rates)... first problem (not a good explanation or handling... More

Athens is a pricy place to stay, specifically downtown. I was able to priceline this room for a good price, and was happy with the deal. It's a exterior door motel, of a simple, somewhat old design. The rooms are clean, but a bit oldish in style. I stayed over a spring weekend, and despite the hotel seeming packed, it... More

We were in Athens for the antebellum home Spring Pilgrimage. The hotel had smaller rooms but they were clean. The breakfast was average. We were on the lower level near the steps to the second level so we did hear people taking the suitcases one step at a time. There were only about 3 parking spaces in front to check... More

We normally stay at a different hotel but it was booked so we got a reservation here. First the good - the location was great, the rate was reasonable, the rooms were very clean, the front desk staff were courteous and friendly. Most important, they all spoke great English. The not so good would be small rooms and too much... More

My wife and I stayed here on a Saturday night for a wedding. The exterior of the hotel is dated, but the room was clean and updated. Bed was very comfortable and room was climate-controlled by a wall thermostat. We walked to downtown, but its' about 3/4 of a mile from the bar scene, and we took a taxi back.... More

I am writing to let you know how much I appreciated the help that "Tripp" gave me and my sister-in-law recently. We were from out of state and had no knowledge of the area when my brother had to be transferred to Athens Regional Medical Center's ICU. At midnight, my sister-in-law and I were forced to find a hotel -... More

Rooms are old, drafty to outside. Asked for non smoking room, but it was smoking. Just felt kind of dirty.

This was my first visit to Athens, so I wasn't sure what to expect. I know that often facilities located close to downtown or college campuses are often abused/ neglected because they're always rented anyway. ( as some of BW's neighbors are reviewed) My room was clean and comfortable. Staff was very helpful and courteous. I would gladly stay again,... More
