Homewood Suites by Hilton Athens Downtown University Area
8/10 Good
"The bathtub needs some kind of bath mat or something non stick inside tub! Thank goodness for the handles cause that’s what saved me from falling all the way into the tub because the bottom of tub was so slick!! Not a good thing for someone that just got a total knee replacement three months ago!! Do Better!! The shower curtain was ripped! Very tacky! Breakfast had nice choices! "

10/10 Excellent
"We arrived late in the evening. The hotel clerk was vert friendly and welcoming. Our check-in was quick and east. The convenient location of the hotel can’t be beat. Clean, quiet room, comfortable bed added to a pleasant night. We will definitely be booking another stay again soon"
"Overall it was fine for what I needed. Staff was friendly and helpful. Bathroom was clean but shower had a lot of mold. There was a nonslip mat on floor of tub that was completely covered in mold on the underside. "
"Breakfast was simple, but good quality. Staff was friendly and efficient. Parking was fine. The hotel is set far enough away from the highway to provide a quiet night's sleep."
