The hotel staff was very friendly and happy to assist with extra requests-blankets, towels, etc. Bed comfortable, room spacious, off a quiet street, away from highway noise. 15 minute drive to downtown Athens for Georgia game. No issues with traffic.

We stayed here for a football game. We had to be moved to another room immediately after checking in due to stains on the bedspread and sheets. Bugs in the room too. The hotel did this with no issue. Towels were so very thin and not good quality. At $509 a night we expected quite a bit more. Such a disappointment!

This was great! Had a nice little kitchen and was very roomy. I’d stay here again.

Friendly BUT the bathroom floor was disgusting with dirty grout coming apart. Old furnishings and ancient carpet. We kept shoes on.

Very utilitarian facility, it has the amenities for longer stays like GYM, laundry, kitchen in rooms for factory or construction crews but really needs to be renovated and upgraded for a pleasant stay. The staff was nice and the pet-friendliness is a plus.
Biggest negatives are very loud air conditioners and refrigerators. The rooms are not thought out well so light switches and outlets are not located where convenient or needed. The furniture is worn, not broken but you are happy when leaving the room since it is not inviting or makes you feel relaxed.

Staff was very nice when checking in. Rooms were a bit dated. Toilet paper dispenser was coming out of the wall, full length mirror frame was broken at the top and taped together with duct tape. There was a visible bug/mouse glue trap behind the toilet/counter in the bathroom. The place was fine for a quick overnight stay.

The front desk staff could NOT have been nicer - all of them were pleasant and greeted us as we came in and went out. The check-in process was smooth and quick. We would have liked a chair in our apartment, but there was none in #212 those days. And the pillows were larger and bulkier than we like. But we enjoyed the rooms very much and will return for our next visit to Athens. This will definitely be our Go-To place there!

It was a short stop to another destination.

The staff was very friendly which I appreciated. The rooms smelled of smoke and there were stains in the linens. You could hear the neighbors fighting in the rooms next door. I generally felt unsafe during my safety and safety is my main priority when traveling.
2.0
The location is behind some businesses so it is hard to find, especially in the dark. The Internet barely allowed me to check email. I had work to do and was up most of the night watching my laptop and the "spinning wheel of death." The front desk manager didn't so much as apologize the next morning.

We found this property to have a terrible odor, and the rooms were not clean. Our first room smelled terribly of cigarette smoke. We changed to a second room, which had a foul smell, almost like there was a dead animal on the wall. I would not recommend, especially for the price that we paid.

It is basically an extended stay with lots of construction workers. Definitely more on the low end

I will not stay here again. The staff was very nice and friendly but the location is worn down and in poor condition. Very limited amenities with no services or restaurants within walking distance. Photos make this look significantly better than it is.

The property is pretty old. My room smelled like stale cigarette smoke. It's also it a bit of a "shady" area. The price of this hotel shouldn't have been more than $100, it was absolutely low budget. The staff was nice and the parking lot was well lit. The room was in desperate need of a remodel. It was as clean as it could be just old and stale. If I had paid $100, I would have said ya get what ya pay for. My total bill was $195 and it was not up to par.

My wife and I frequently visit Athens to see our daughter who attends UGA. We booked this hotel through hotels.com and upon arrival were told they are not supposed to accept people who live within 50 miles of the hotel, we live 48 miles away, and that next tome we would not be allowed to stay. Well then...looks like this asinine policy just cost you 2 customers. There are too many hotels to choose from to stay at a place where our money is apparently not good. Dumb people make dumb rules.

Was pretty good although one of our rooms smelled like fried food

The staff was friendly and check in was good. The smell in our room and In the hallway was unbearable. We left early and moved to a different hotel.

Very pet-friendly which was perfect. Like the mini studio apartment feel to it. Bed was comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful. Was there for a family emergency and the staff was accommodating to our needs.

Staff was a helpful and friendly. I spoke to Virginia during the process of booking the room. I explained to her that I was there for my mom who was dying in hospice. I told her I didn’t know how many days I’d be there. I needed information of the pet policy. Virginia was so helpful. She asked if I am an IHG member which I am so the pet fee was adjusted. I find the pet policy to be very fair and accommodating. The pet area was great. The little store/pantry was very convenient. The bed was comfortable. The little kitchen was nice. We will still at Candlewood Hotels in the future, especially because of the excellent pet policy.

I thought it was great that everything that we needed was in the room, such as refrigerator, microwave, and sink. I’m sorry but the beds really stink! Staff was really great and rooms were clean.
