Positive: Previous communication with hotel, requesting confirmation of number of guest, if disability room was needed, pets etc. Hotel room was clean, comfortable beds and very spacious. Room had a nice size refrigerator and microwave. Hotel is located in a beautiful area next to the Emory University with walking distance to CVS, popular fast food dinning options and a local bus transportation (Marta Blue line route). Very quiet and safe area. Negative: Hotel offered breakfast, but it was less than a continental style type. Bathroom has not additional towel hangers besides a small one inside the shower so we were setting our wet towels on chairs or leaving them inside of a small closet which make them smell. my family -4people- stayed for 3 nights and no cleaning service (trash not taking out, beds unmade, new clean towels or replenish of toilet paper) was provided. If you didn't book the hotel directly with them instead of with an external website, there is parking charge at the end of your stay.

Pleasantly Surprised

Wasn't sure what to expect when we pulled it. It may not be new, but it was clean and larger rooms than expected. Checking in an out was pleasant and no problems at all. . . I would highly recommend this as a great place to stay.

The best adjective to use for the hotel is "spare". The one person I saw working at the desk was quite friendly and informative. The hotel is housekeeping-on-demand. I was only staying two nights, so I didn't ask for it. It was a bit unnerving to come back to a hotel at night with the bed unmade, but that's what I asked for. The breakfast is all out of boxes, good quality, but except for the coffee/tea, cold. In what must be a covid-artifact, there is no place to eat in the lobby: we're invited to eat in our room or outside. Overall, fine. I didn't spend much time there and have no complaints.

The property was extremely clean. The staff was corteous. I noticed there was no hair-dried at 10 pm, called the front desk and they ran one to my room a few minutes later. The room is spacious. I would not count on breakfast unless you enjoy eating processed and pre-packed pastries.

Disappointe in my stay not the same as I have

I always stay at the University Inn, because my granddaughter is attending Emory University, she is a sophomore. Tis was the most disappointing time of all and we have stayed there at 5 or 6 times. First of all I asked for a handicap room and was given 2212 at the bottom of flight of six steps to go down. there was no bars in the shower to hang on to, to get in the shower. I do not know why I was not given 2218 at the end of the hall, which had no stairs to get to it and you could just walk right into it. Then when we were settle in the room the lamp between the beds would go on and off. So I followed the cord and found that the plug in box was mount on the wall and the box spring was setting sitting right under it and that mattress was resting on top of it. So every time i sat on the bed iI was disconnecting the cord. So we would move the mattress and replug it in so we had a light in the room. Someday the mattress may catch on fire. Then when I got m bill on my Credit card I was charged the full 4 days stay plus a $7.50 a parking charge for each day. I made my reservation November 1, 2024 when there was no parking fee but they changed their policy on 11/18/24. I was never informed about this until I got my bill on my credit card. Called them and their was too bad basically. Not the type of service I was use to from them.

Great value, super-convenient to Emory University

Great hotel! Good value. Super-easy parking. Located directly across from the Emory School of Law and the Emory University campus. Only drawback is limited eating options. The grab & go breakfast at the hotel is pretty spare. Local neighborhood is all Panera Bread, Jimmy John's, etc. So you will need a car to reach decent food.
