The lobby is the most scenic part of the hotel. The rooms are layed out like apartments around the complex. Note that there isn't an elevator if your room is on the second floor. Breakfast is quite expensive but delicious. Staff was very friendly and location was excellent

We have stayed several times and it has always been great- this time we found it a little off-putting to come into the lobby and it felt like you had to be absolutely silent as students were studying close to the door.

Great Stay
Room was very clean and nicely appointed. Great location. Big bed was super comfy. Staff were friendly and helpful. The other on site amenities like bar and dining/concert facilities are all very nice. Would happily stay there again and recommend it to others.

To be completely honest, this should be called Motel Abacus not Hotel. The design was great and led me to believe it would be a boutique-like hotel. It is not. And please get a coffee pot in the rooms.

I like the decor, but I didn’t expect a body pillow and someone’s dirty socks under my bed. Under the beds need a cleaning.

Great little spot.
Convenient to downtown shops, bars, and restaurants. Enjoyed the boho decor throughout the hotel, the coffee shop and coffee was great, everyone was very attentive and pleasant to deal with. The room was inviting and was wonderful for backdrops in pictures. Would definitely stay here again.

Hotel Abacus was charming! It is like a boutique hotel, lots of character. It is older, but it’s clean, and the heat and plumbing were all in good working order. The beds were very comfy, and the room was larger than I expected. The property is in easy walking distance of downtown Athens. The stadium was about a half hour walk, but easily doable and sure beat paying for gameday parking and dealing with the traffic. We had a lovely Thanksgiving visit and will definitely be returning.

Met our expectations
We had a great experience and were extremely reluctant to book based on the recent reviews but this hotel met our expectations. Check-in was smooth, great coffee shop on the property and the room was clean. Super convenient access to campus and downtown. Friendly staff, no issues and will stay again.
