They are closed permanently
Pros:

This hotel closed ours doors on February 10 2026 and did not notify anyone. My wife saw a l small banner on their website that said it will be closing on 10 February. She called and was told we would get a refund but they are not honoring our stay. So they were going to let us show up to a closed hotel on a sold out weekend in Athens. Thanks for looking out. News reports said they are making dorm style apartments.

The Sitting Area was ideal for family dinner!
Pros:

The pavillion, the quietness at night, the bustle of downtown during the evening and the home-like feel of the sitting area.

Cons:

I believed that I had booked the room that I wanted but found out at the desk that I had not and it was essential to have the sitting area. So I had to pay an additional $75 for the sitting area on site. It was not the Deluxe Suite that I reserved but actually the Grande Suite I was told.
