Categories

Cleanliness
8.8
Generally praised as clean — several reviews note 'limpieza impecable' and 'clean and comfortable' rooms. Some guests did report irregular housekeeping (not daily), but overall cleanliness is strong.
Service
8.6
Service is frequently highlighted positively (friendly, helpful staff; fast check-in; specific staff praised by name). A few operational lapses were reported (safety box not fixed, unclear phone/ordering flow, housekeeping schedule issues), but overall staff interactions are a strength.
Location
9.2
Widely praised — excellent, walkable location near attractions, restaurants, Piedmont Park and museums. Multiple guests cite location as a primary reason to choose the hotel.
Room Quality
8.5
Rooms are described as spacious, comfortable beds, good bathrooms and great views. Some negatives include occasional pipe noises, lukewarm shower water, and water splashing from showers in some rooms.
Amenities
7.2
Amenity experience is mixed and leans negative due to repeated reports of the on-site pool being closed/out of order and limited in-room amenities for some guests. Parking costs and availability also factor into amenity-related dissatisfaction.
Value for Money
7.8
Perceived value is pulled down by high parking fees (reports of $69–$75) and room rates near $300; some guests felt only the location justified the cost. Other guests found the overall offering reasonable given the property quality.
Food and Beverage
8.6
Food/beverage impressions are mixed: several guests praised a varied, plentiful breakfast, while others found breakfast disappointing or experienced confusion about ordering (QR code/process). Coffee machine limitations were also noted.
Overall Experience
8.5
Most guests report a very positive stay (beautiful property, friendly staff, would stay again) but recurring operational issues — notably the closed pool, parking costs, and occasional housekeeping/amenity problems — temper the experience slightly.

3.5 star.
Pros:

Comfortable bed and quiet room.

Cons:

Loud raucous lobby. Coffee machine with a single regular coffee and a single decaf, so if you have two people, you have to ration. Housekeeping didn't come clean the room and I was told they come every other day. Really. Few amenities in the room.
