This hotel is just okay. I’ll start with the food then focus on the bad. There’s definitely aspects that this hotel can improve upon.
The Good:
The staff are amazing and caring individuals. All of the front desk and security that I interacted with had so much energy and passion for their job, it was truly enjoyable interacting with them. Amazing people.
The location is also very convenient, only being a few minutes walk from many downtown attractions. It’s also a short walk from a MARTA station so it’s super easy to get to and from the airport.
The rooms themselves are fairly nice with retro fridges. They also have good views on either sides of the hotel.
Housekeeping was on time every day and did a great job cleaning the room everyday. Everything in my room was functioning and I didn’t need to call the front desk for anything.
The Bad:
Unfortunately, they definitely have a rodent problem. Although I didn’t personally witness any in my room, I heard them through the night and heard other customers have problems. I over heard people coming to the front desk complaining about mice in their room, and kept waking up in the night to the sound of rodents squeaking from somewhere, which you can hear in the video. Thankfully I didn’t see any which is why I didn’t bother changing rooms. Of course, the staff were very apologetic and accommodated customers, and this was not their fault. I would invest in an exterminator if I was hotel management, this really brings down an otherwise positive experience.
Also, there is a single communal microwave, it would be a lot more useful/sanitary if each room had their own microwave.
This is less of a hotel thing and more of an Atlanta thing, but there many, many homeless people milling about in the area around the hotel, so just watch out for that. There is security in the hotel, which helps with peace of mind and the doors require a card to enter the hotel.
All in all, it’s a good hotel but there’s some flaws that really put a black mark on my experience, that I think they could fix with a little investment.
