Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
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.

Good location to where I was attending a conference at Emory although there . Decent bed. The other bed made a creaking noise so I didn’t choose it. The air conditioner was very noisy. I couldn’t get captions on the TV. The room had a smell. Couldn’t figure it out.

Saw multiple roaches in the room. Holes in ceiling closet. Everything in the room felt old. Air conditioner was dirty and unclean. The exterior and interior need some massive upgrades because this looked like a rundown motel. Also the breakfast was not good at all. It's some grab and go. The staff were ok but when asking questions they changed their attitude. The pool didn't have any chairs. Wasps were in multiple parts of the walkways. I had to check out early and I could say more but I wanna keep this review somewhat short. Whoever reads this, do yourself a favor and pay a little extra for a better hotel.

My only real complaint is the TV. Could not get local channels or regular networks (CBS, ABC, NBC). Other channels were often "pixeling" all the time. Fortunately, I had a good book and iPad.

Really convenient for the university if you are visiting students but really nothing around the hotel other than uni . Walls very thin so bring earplugs and we found most electric sockets not working so hard to charge phone . And room not cleaned in 4 nights

The staff was very nice. The coffee was good but they really only had pastries and cereal for breakfast, which is fine. The place is clean, although there were some ants in our room. The room had a small fridge and microwave. The beds were comfy. It's close to Emory and about half the price of the other places nearby.
