The location is great for OU! The room was clean, but next to the breakfast service, so not ideal. Decor and comfort is lacking at the hotel. The fire alarm went off in the morning without any clear communication. The breakfast wasn’t fully set out on time.

Room and hotel in general were very clean and modern. Location is the best in Athens for uptown access - a quick two block walk to Court Street. The staff was incredible!!! Every single staff member was friendly, helpful and attentive. They made the stay even more enjoyable. My husband and I were in town to celebrate Valentine’s Day and his birthday (we met at OU 25 years ago!). We walked in the room to find rose petals and chocolates - so sweet! We will definitely be back!
