Horrible!! Beware!
Horrible experience! Our first room the heater did not work and woke up very cold. We are traveling from Texas and definitely aren’t used to the cold weather. We asked to be moved into a room where the heater was working and then our 2nd room had a water leak in the bathroom on the ceiling. The breakfast was cereal and wrapped danishes. The hallways smelled like weed and the hotel is very outdated. The bathroom in the 2nd room smelled like urine! This has to be the worst experience ever!

Ok room but unexpected occupants
Front desk service was super nice. We had room 138 so we had to go upstairs. Hallway looked clean but dated. Room overall was clean, beds were comfortable. Bathroom sink had a large crack and bathroom as a whole needed to be updated and repaired. Shower was just ok. Morning time we had about 5 more occupants (roaches) hanging out in the bathroom. We quickly got dressed and left ..didnt eat breakfast bc we didnt feel comfortable doinh it. Upon checking out i did notify front desk and she seemed frustrated that they were seen bc they do spray.

Dirty and unacceptable.
Our room was obscenely overpriced and it was dirty. It was a football weekend at UGA but that's not an excuse for the condition of the room. We found bugs crawling on the dresser, in the sink and all over the bathroom floor. I walked right out and asked for a refund. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Everything was good nice friendly staff. It’s just the room had roaches in it. And I had to go buy some roach spray killer because I didn’t want them getting in my luggage

Bugs in room
Unfortunately we had roaches in our room, on the night stand and on the wall near bed. We couldn’t sleep thinking what would try to crawl on us during the night. Unacceptable.
