Good location to where I was attending a conference at Emory although there . Decent bed. The other bed made a creaking noise so I didn’t choose it. The air conditioner was very noisy. I couldn’t get captions on the TV. The room had a smell. Couldn’t figure it out.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Saw multiple roaches in the room. Holes in ceiling closet. Everything in the room felt old. Air conditioner was dirty and unclean. The exterior and interior need some massive upgrades because this looked like a rundown motel. Also the breakfast was not good at all. It's some grab and go. The staff were ok but when asking questions they changed their attitude. The pool didn't have any chairs. Wasps were in multiple parts of the walkways. I had to check out early and I could say more but I wanna keep this review somewhat short. Whoever reads this, do yourself a favor and pay a little extra for a better hotel.

My only real complaint is the TV. Could not get local channels or regular networks (CBS, ABC, NBC). Other channels were often "pixeling" all the time. Fortunately, I had a good book and iPad.

The staff was very nice. The coffee was good but they really only had pastries and cereal for breakfast, which is fine. The place is clean, although there were some ants in our room. The room had a small fridge and microwave. The beds were comfy. It's close to Emory and about half the price of the other places nearby.
