I’m 51 years old and have travelled extensively staying in countless hotels around the world. I’m super picky. This hotel was hands down the best hotel I’ve ever stayed at. I feel like I’ve stumbled onto a hidden gem. My daughter is at UGA and we are so excited to have found it. The rooms, the service, the extra special touches. Everything. In a league of its own. It looks WAY better in person than the website.
