Great check in clerk and hotel-filthy bathroom!
The hotel indigo is my favorite hotel chain. The buildings are always just the right amount of funky, and the check in clerk in Athens Georgia was just delightful. The room looked great upon check-in, however later in the evening, when we returned from dinner I discovered that there was dried human waste dripped down the outside of the toilet bowl. I then looked more closely at the bathroom and realized that the whole room was dirty. The corners of the room had hair and dirty gathered in them, there was significant dust on the surfaces. I would say the only clean area was the mirror and inside the shower. I did inform the check out clerk as I was leaving but she was on a phone call and did not seem concerned. I really hope that the quality of Indigo is not going the same way as other chains have in the past. It would be a shame!
