Luxury but needs some tuning

Seems like a very new establishment. Everything is in beautiful brand new condition...except the elevator that was having trouble for some portion of both days we were visiting. Not a problem for us, but could easily have been an issue. We weren't told until we arrived that we might not have an elevator to get to our 3rd floor room. Most of the time we took the stairs since the elevator only worked sporadically and it was marked out of order at check-out. The bar staff was friendly and it was a nice quiet place to enjoy the beginnings of a weekend away. They made wonderful cocktails and helpful recommendations. We liked the ambiance so much we came back for dinner to Olio, which was even better than expected. And reasonably priced for such a nice dinner! Valet only parking was an annoyance, especially when requesting your car didn't result in the car being brought all the way to the entrance. If I'm forced to pay for valet, I shouldn't have to also walk a distance to the car. Perhaps a young attendant. Our attendant at check-out did it right. The room looked out on the train tracks so sound machine and earplugs were provided, which made us a little nervous, but we didn't hear a train at all and both slept soundly. The rain shower is fantastic, but a little small. Robes are provided, but not slippers. Overall a beautiful place I wouldn't mind coming to again (to try the spa), but they could use a little help making it a truly luxurious stay to match the look of the place.

I've stayed at the Rivet house four times now in the last year. I love the property and it is my preferred location in Athens. It is my go to. I like the vibe, the restaurant, room decor, spa - all good. A couple of suggestions as you enter into year 2. 1) Need same day laundry service or machines some where. This is a staple for frequent travelers. I have been driving to a local laundromat. 2) Housekeeping needs to be more reliable. My preferences is for room to be made up every day. Frequently I get towels and trash emptied, but no beds made. This an be improved. 3) Parking is awful. Tons of open spots all around the hotel - cones to block off spots near the hotel forcing self parking customers to park around back is terrible. Valet service for $25 per day is terrible. Get rid of this and re-do parking. I will remain a loyal customer and, like I say, I love the property. Just a few suggestions.

Beautiful hotel, stylishly done. Room was very small, and a train runs about 15 feet from the room. On a Friday night there were 3-4 trains (That I heard) that went right past the room. We did not get a chance to eat in the restaurant, but friends raved about it
