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.

Let me first start off by saying, this hotel is a joke and should be shut down. The check-in process was a ridiculous by any means. I called ahead weeks before, to confirm our room, which was good. I was thinking this would be an easy process. I also asked them if they were fine with American Express, which they said they were. So all things are good, right, not necessarily. Arrived on-site, got to front desk, my Amex was declined….very baffled by that since the credit limit should be substantial enough. Tried again, no luck. Called Amex to see what was going on, they could not see the transaction attempts so my thoughts are that their system may be down, seems legitimate right? Front desk attendant called his manager I guess, could not understand what they were saying because they were speaking some foreign language, which is another problem. (Very rude to not speak English when you have an English speaking customer, feel like I am at a disadvantage here.) The front desk attendant hung up with the so-called manager and told me that I needed to try another card or go get cash, but yet could not get me an answer as to why my Amex was not working. I could see on the machine that Amex was one of the products that could be used. Again, the front desk attendant called his manager, same thing. After the third call, we later learned that they do not take Amex, well, they could have said that in the beginning. Overall check-in was terrible.

The whole property is run down. I dont mind if furniture is broken & walls are all patched up. But at least the room should be clean. Sink full of hair. Floors hadnt been swept. Every surface dirty. Sheet had cigarette burns on it. Carpet nasty full of burn whole. Dont stay here unless your desperate & then its best to stay in your car.

I’d rather sleep in my car.

The dirtiest hotel I have ever been to. They were rude, the bed was broken, the toilet broke, several people had issues at check in, and by the time I got to my room I wish I had been one of them.

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.

Worst motel in Athens

Room was outdated, smelled terrible, all outlets sparked when plugging up anything. No lamps on side table, not enough towels, washcloths, hair in shower, toilet water smelled like sewage. Bed was old and hard, didnt offer enough pillows. Floor had at least 4 soft spots. Do not recommend!

Not worth $30 a night. No lamp in the room, only lighting was a wall mounted light where the entry hall meets the bedroom, or the bathroom light. No facial tissue, lowest quality bath tissue available. I actually drove home after a 40 Watt Club show (1.5 hours) rather than stay in the room.

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.

The room would've been fine for the two nights I booked if it hadn't been for the ever-present faint smell of weed smoke. I can't stand that smell, and it made sleeping very difficult. Ironically, I booked a non-smoking room and the manager reminded me three times while checking in that I couldn't smoke in the room. I guess I know why now. I checked out the next morning and didn't stay the second night.
