Great budget hotel. Exterior needs a little love
Room was clean and comfortable, a great deal for the price. Breakfast was really delicious and the lattes were tasty. The gym is serviceable, though the Peloton was out-of-order while we were there. The exterior shows signs of wear (Paint, concrete stairs separating from the metal frame) but otherwise quiet and comfortable inside.

Convenient, unique, renovated motel
Wonderful, unique, boutique “motel” in the heart of Athens. Close to UGA and downtown. Can walk everywhere. Entrance to the property is a little tricky. Restaurant was closed during my trip which was not indicated on website. Was able to use food credits at coffee bar located in lobby. Check in staff was not super friendly but evening staff was helpful and very friendly. Would definitely stay again! Loved the decor!

Cozy room and very neat reuse of an old building. Very few electrical outlets in the room, nowhere to set luggage down, and the pillows were too floppy for my preference.

Loved the nice big beds. The fact that the bar was closed was a big negative. And we had light glaring into the room both nights . The first night it kept us up all night 2 day I went and bought a blanket to cover the light.

Cute, kitschy atmosphere! Very comfortable bed - very clean. The only downer was the tv was hard to set up - not that we watched much tv! I’d book there again, for sure.
