Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I called before booking to confirm that the location had a pool/hot tub, they confirmed yes and continued to book me. I payed for the room, drove my 4yearold 3 hours just to get here and there is no hot tub or pool and they require an extra $100 deposit after you arrive. The room has roaches, the lamps are broken, the bottom drawer on the dresser will not stay closed, the AC unit is broken, the lamps are broken, the walls are dirty. And there is black mold growing on the cracked ceiling In the bathroom.

Responded 16 Jan 2024
Thank you for your feedback regarding your stay. I'm not sure who you may have spoken to prior to your arrival, but our hotel has never had a pool or hot tub and we do not advertise this online either. We are sorry for any misinformation you received. Because your reservation was done through a 3rd party, our hotel does require a $100 deposit for incidentals and this is returned at check-out when your room is checked. This is our hotel policy. We are sorry to hear about the condition of your room. Had the front desk attendant known about this, they would have gladly moved you to another room or even refunded your stay. We are about customer service and have no problem resolving issues as we know about them. Again, we sincerely do apologize for your less than satisfactory stay at our hotel and we will take your feedback into consideration as we seek to make improvements to our property.

Hotel's Favourite
Super-friendly staff on check-in. The room was large and nicely appointed with a coffee maker and a small refrigerator, plus it was very clean. Bed was comfortable and had plenty of pillows, which I usually don't find in a lot of lower-priced hotels. My only complaint was that the air-conditioning was on at full blast when we first came in (62 degrees on a cold November night!?), but once we cranked the heat it was very cozy. Would definitely book here again if I was coming through town.

This motel was the cleanest hotel/motel I have stayed in in a very long time! The receptionist is exceptional. The parking lot is well lit, water pressure is great, and breakfast was great! We WILL be back!

The good: friendly staff, decent bed and carpet in rooms, clean bathroom. Everything else is bad. STAY AWAY from Room 220. That couch in that room is disgusting. Stained, old, and if you try to fold it out and use it as a bed, you will be in for an unpleasant surprise as it is broken and the mattress is basically iron coils in your back. Too dirty, broken, and uncomfortable to be slept on. This is big deal as this room is called a "suite", but it's tiny. It's a standard small motel room. So if the one king bed is not enough, find a blanket, put it over the disgusting, stained couch, and try to sleep on that in a scrunched position. Hated the room. Left a day early. Really didn't get anything for the inconvenience of a "suite" being this nasty. I didn't give it a 1 because breakfast was okay and the front desk staff was friendly. I see high ratings for this place, and I don't get it. It's not clean. Oh other fun things you'll run into are a cryptic yet basic TV remote and TV that doesn't show you the channel number, and there is no channel guide on the TV or in the room either. When you see the remote in room 220, you'll laugh and remember I wrote this, then you are off into channel changing purgatory. Won't stay here again. I stay in a lot of Choice Hotels and this Quality Inn fails to meet the mark in terms of comfort and cleanliness. Avoid it unless sleeping on a dirty couch seems appealing.

Basic and clean, but pretty noisy with outside traffic. The outside noise bleeds into your room all night. Far from campus, but our priority was cleanliness which it met. The front desk clerk was absolutely amazing!

Wonderful, knowledgeable, professional and friendliest staffs I have ever encountered. The rooms are thoroughly cleaned after each check out and made ready as well as making sure it's comfortable for the next guest(s). The services rendered there are without a doubt, five stars quality rated. Excellent work!

Atlanta, Georgia4 contributions1 helpful vote
A co-worker and I were speaking at a conference in Athens and made reservations here based on the Choice Hotels website 4+ stars. We booked a ground floor room with 2 double beds. When we arrived, it was upstairs (outside entrance and no elevator) and it had 1 king bed. Once we realized that, we were going to leave our belongings in the room and go back down to the desk to get the 2 doubles that were requested on the reservation. When we pulled the door closed to do that, it was apparent that the door would not even close and lock. You could just push it open! We ended up changing hotels when they couldn't give us what we reserved. Then charged us a $25 no-show fee to boot!

This is an old property that has been updated a little bit. It is a 2-floor, outside entry hotel. Parking was easy and well-lit. Location was pretty good; short drive to downtown. Front desk guy was not friendly or welcoming in any way. He could use some customer service training. Beds were comfortable and the room was fairly clean. However the carpets need to be replaced, and the horrible green coverlet on the bed should be removed. Dead fly stuck to the curtain, mysterious splatter on the lamp, mildew or mold on ceiling above shower - not what I’d expect for $200/night. I realize they are going to get more during college move in, and sometimes there aren’t many other options so i guess it’s fine. Will look elsewhere next time I’m in town most likely.

This hotel is very nice compared to many other Quality Inns for sure! The outside was surprisingly clean too! The parking lot was full but it wasn't noisy at all during my stay. The front desk lady was kind and attentive and breakfast was good enough for me. I also got a little welcome bag for my room which I've never gotten in all my hotel stays! I felt like I was welcome at this hotel. I travel a lot so I definitely plan to return here when I'm back in Athens.
