Categories

Cleanliness
3.5
Multiple guests reported strong cigarette smoke smell in rooms, cigarette burns, visible dirt smears, and at least one report of pests (cockroach/possible bedbug) — overall cleanliness is notably poor.
Service
8.2
Several guests praised friendly and helpful staff, a helpful night-shift employee and good check-in service; however there were isolated complaints about refusal to refund and staff not thoroughly checking noise complaints.
Location
8.5
Location was frequently highlighted as a strong positive (close to Emory, train station and destination); one guest felt it was farther than advertised but overall location is a clear strength.
Room Quality
4.8
Rooms have mixed quality: some comfortable beds and clean bathrooms reported, but multiple issues with smoke smell, old/ worn bedding, cigarette burns, excessive heat/AC problems and pest sighting lowered room quality.
Amenities
7.4
Free parking and daily room service were mentioned positively; basic in-room amenities are limited (soap not always provided unless requested) so amenities are adequate but not comprehensive.
Value for Money
7.8
Many guests noted economical pricing and good cost/benefit for a short stay; a minority felt the price was too high given facility issues, resulting in an overall slightly above-average value perception.
Food and Beverage
4
Breakfast was repeatedly described as basic and disappointing (lack of fruit, eggs, meats), prompting several guests to skip it — food and beverage offering is limited.
Overall Experience
7
Mixed experiences: friendly staff, good location and price for many, but significant cleanliness, room and breakfast issues led to several negative stays; overall experience is slightly above midline given the positives.

Pros:

The manager gave me a bottled water

Cons:

Thete was someone next door who was cussing loud and was not considerate. When I told the manager she said no one was staying next door. She said why didnt I call which was a valid point but I did not see her go and check tbe riom either. Evidently they had a non paying person. The doorr to tbe neighbors riom was open all nite. I felt VERY unsafe. I smell3d pot coming from tbe room and heard horrible things being yelled througbout the nite. If I could get a refund I would aopreciate it. I left the next day for travelling out of tbe coungry. With little to no sleep.
