Good Spot for UGA games

We were only there for one night, but the front desk staff was friendly, and the room was clean and comfortable. There is an onsite restaurant but there are about 3 things on the menu for dinner; it's definitely more of a bar.

OK but not my favorite

I’ve stayed here twice, and it’s definitely a vibe. They’re going for quirky but it’s just not for me. Both times I’ve stayed, the rooms felt damp and musty. It’s very bare bones in terms of amenities. The decor is fun but also a little creepy. Decorating the dresser by lining it with old portraits is certainly a choice.
