The furniture was cheap & beat up. All around the bottom of the dresser was water damaged & the veneer torn off. There was food left in the fridge from the previous people. Many of the buttons on the remote did not work, including the closed captioning button, which my husband needed. I am on oxygen & the local provider delivered a concentrator for me to use while sleeping. It is on wheels, but very heavy. My husband is disabled & uses a walker or scooter. The lady who checked us in brought it to our room from the office. I really appreciated that. I probably could have managed, it would have been difficult. We had to check out early (before the front desk opened) to be at Emory so I called them to let them know & that our card key would be on the dresser. I let them know the provider would be by to get the concentrator but we could not bring it to the office (the property inclined from our room to the office). The woman started getting very snippy to me, interrupting me when I was trying to explain, angrily telling me she was pregnant and she was not going to do it either. I nicely asked if housekeeping could do it when they got there and she said "no, put it outside the door". Outside the door was actually outside and in plain view of the parking lot & street. I said I wasn't comfortable leaving it out there. She just kept angrily repeating "put it outside the room." Will never stay there again. Not worth the $189. Wouldn't stay if it were free.

The inn is close to Emory University, so lots of places to eat nearby. There’s noise from the street, but it quiets down by late evening. My room was adequate but the bathroom had no towel racks. The breakfast was mostly sweet, packaged items. I wished there were apples, bananas or hard boiled eggs. But the bed was fine and the bathroom was clean.

Slept so good because it was EXCEPTIONALLY clean! WELL MAINTAINED! All the space in room 212 was a treat compared to most hotels these days. No stuffiness or bad smells. Just clean and comfortable. We will be back to Emory for appointments and will always always always book a room at The University Inn. I’m dreading a day there may not be a room available. We got the last one this time! A side note is that we got there after midnight and the staff were easy to reach and got us checked in efficiently and kindly. The to go breakfast was clean and set up at 7am. They had hearty boiled eggs in prepackaged to go as well as yogurt, make your own quick oatmeal, prepackaged muffin/pastries, fruit cups, milk, granola bars, juice, & maybe another thing or two I’m forgetting. Good enough for us. Very pleased with this place.

The staff was fantastic. The rooms need updating. They are old and out of style. The mattresses were uncomfortable. The air was leaking so the rug was wet. I was to reiterate though the staff was great. Very friendly and helpful.

The room smelled musty. I did travel with a small dog and was designated a pet friendly room, however, it seems that the rug needs a deep cleaning. Also found the parking fee unnecessary.
