A very complete motel, that in every way feels like a good hotel. We had excellent service when our lights didn't work in the room, maintenance was there within 5 minutes and get it fixed. And later on when we had lost something in the room which we discovered after checkout, we could come back and check the room ourselves... More

For the most part this hotel is what you would expect: nothing fancy, just a clean comfortable hotel. The lobby is spacious with lots of seating for their breakfast buffet which is worth having. Fresh pancakes, fruits, yogurt, toast/pastries, cereal and milk, juices, bacon and sausage make up one of the best breakfast buffets I have ever had at a... More

I don't travel often to places where I will stay in a motel, so when I had to attend a conference on the UGA campus, I deferred to my colleagues in selecting a place to stay. They insisted on the Holiday Inn Express "because it is geared towards business travelers with a good breakfast, nicer rooms, and more amenities." I... More

Check in was great! With a lot of people checking in at the same time the front desk staff kept the flow going to avoid a wait. They also spent the time needed to make me feel welcome, explain where my room was, and all the local attractions. I found that my room was one of the cleanest hotel rooms... More

I love Holiday Inn Express - everywhere we have ever stayed but this one was just awful. We pulled up and a car comes zooming in with a worker from the hotel blasting rap music. I have three small kids. Lobby seemed fine. Guests seemed fine. But across the street from very sketchy neighborhood --VERY. Bright lights for the parking... More

This place was easy to find and only a couple of blocks away from the main town of Athens so easy for restaurants, shops etc. Staff were extremely efficient and friendly, and prices were great value for a comfortable specious room with wi-fi etc., and great breakfasts all included

We had a reservation for a non-smoking room for three nights, but at check in we were told that one of those nights would have to be a smoking room because a large group was coming in and couldn't be separated. The front desk clerk was no help at all, including no active response to our request to help us... More

This is a caveat for anyone who books a room for a reasonable rate at any property near campus: be aware that you may be sharing the hotel with a group of school kids. We took a group of 35 high school juniors, and that same night there were two other school groups. I felt badly for the few adults... More
