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This hotel was outdated and overpriced.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.

The staff at check in was so friendly and helpful. We knew we would pay more to stay in Athens for the game. With that being said it would not have mattered what we paid as the conditions and smell of room was musty and mold from the leaking ac unit. It’s great they allow pets but there a distinct odor of urine in our room. The beds felt damp from the AC issue and I was really disappointed in the condition of room. I want to express that the front desk employees were so nice but there is really not a thing they could do with the condition of this room. I will stay outside of Athens before I do this again.

The 2 main issues related to cleanliness that I advised the staff of were that I noted a cockroach in my bathroom on the day I left, plus there was the intermittent smell of urine or ammonia in the room itself. All evidence otherwise was a clean comfortable bed, good access to the area, decent breakfast options, and a very friendly knowledgeable staff that were sincerely apologetic for the things I pointed out.

First room we were booked into the sofa bed had a very bad rust stains, and stuff all over the mattress in the sofa. The second room we were moved to was room 215 and had severe water damage from the sprinkler head run off in the room, I have plenty of pictures.

The parking lot was not completely available due to paving. The manager at the front desk was rude. They charged me for early check in $50 and $100 for incidental fee. In addition, I was using a tax exempt form and Expedia had already billed my account for the full balance before I checked in.

The staff is overwhelmed. Front desk clerk, cleans, cooks, and security. The property is rundown. I was greeted with a smile and a warmed welcome. However, a man walking around in lobby, smelling like liquor.. the rooms smell like mold. Damp and dirty carpet. The bathroom door didn’t shut . the couch had a large brown stained . I brought linen. I was given balled up linen for my bed. 3am in the morning, upstairs heard noise from neighbors fighting. Homeless people walking around the property. I saw a man digging into the trash. This place is not safe. No security. The place needs an upgrade or inspection for violations

We started 3 days. Staff was nice but hotel was not well kept. Our room was damp so our clothes felt wet. The bathroom had mold in the shower. Room smelled a bit. Would not recommend.
