I booked this hotel for 3 reasons…amenities, location & price. Location was good. Price was alright until after checking in, amenities were falsely advertised. Explanation is simple, pool & hot tub were not working, had not been working for quite some time and no mention upon checkin. Breakfast was told 6:30-10, but this is only for weekends, we did go at 9am there was no bread, bagel or any type of pastry to be toasted, scrambled eggs looked uncooked, sausage patties appeared uncooked therefore the lineup for waffles was very long. I will not recommend this hotel now will I ever stay here again. The corners of the room had not been vacuumed in months it was unclean.

When we pulled up there was an incident next door at the liquor store and the police were there. Very outdated building. I was scared the elevator was going to quit. I could hear everything through the walls so I was up all night. There was mold on the ceiling. And the hotel has to know it's a problem since there was a dehumidifier in the room. Torn curtains, hole in the sheets, rust, dirt, spiderwebs, dirty couch.

I love this hotel! My family and I we try to go to visit to Danielsville and this hotel is perfectly close, in Athens to visit around and close to my final destination. This is my second visit here and I’m surprised how clean and safe it feels, both receptionist were so nice and so respectful I felt so welcomed. I’ll be checking my next date in this hotel for sure in a few weeks.

We had the best check in experience-the associate was probably the best one we have ever experienced in all of our travels...Lobby was nice and welcoming. Elevator was clean and nice..had a button for floor 3 that did not work properly and needed to be repaired. Our room was ok...bed was comfortable, a couple of holes in the walls that did not go all the way through. furniture was aged-had a small frig, coffee bar. You could hear your neighbors tv so no sound barriers. Breakfast was ok...associate was on her phone most of the time we were there instead of assisting the guests who needed different selections.The only really negative was that we went to bed and someone in the floor above us was vacuuming and woke us up. I wonder if there are people living there as well as paying guests.

The hotel was located in a quiet area away from major noise making highways. Our room had a very strong deodorizer smell so the staff found us a new room that was much better. The ac under the window made sleeping in the bed next to it uncomfortable. Fortunately the room was Spacious and had two queen beds.

This hotel was outdated and overpriced. The pool was inoperable and we were very disappointed because this is why we went with this hotel. The website said indoor pool. When I asked the manager, they said it would be running in "a few days". There were other people complaining about this, too. The hotel was also extremely noisy. We didn't have blankets or sheets for the pull out sofa. Overall, I am terribly disappointed.

The pictures of this property on Expedia and the Windham website itself are very misleading. This is a very run-down property and nothing about it says “quality”. The biggest problem with the room itself was the wet carpet that gave it a very musty smell. There was a dehumidifier already in the room that did nothing and it appeared that someone had attempted to cover up the smell but this room should not have been rented out in the first place. While we were there, we heard other customers complain that their rooms also had wet carpets. We left the property early but were told by the front desk that we would still have to pay the “two-night minimum” because it was a football weekend in Athens. I cannot emphasize enough how overpriced this hotel is, for what you actually get, and we will never go back there.
