10/10 Excellent
"This property was excellent! Clean, comfortable beds (they also have the bed bug resistant covers on their mattresses, which I appreciate)-- sink and showers were clean and in good working condition, and I really loved that we could park right outside our room. The rates were fair and the breakfast in the morning was a big plus (and if you arrive late at night, or need a midnight meal, there is a waffle house across the street!). Also, we didn't have issues with the street noise so that was great too! My only complaint is there wasn't a do-not-disturb door hanger available, and I wasn't expecting the cleaning crew to come into our room while we were gone so we came back after a day of adventure and had to put the sheets back on the bed the way we wanted them (and they took the towel and hand towel we had already used, but I didn't want to have to dirty another towel unnecessarily). It just would have been nice to not have staff come into our room while we were gone. They really should have a way to opt out of the daily cleaning thing (I know some people do like their room being cleaned daily, but it really bothers me to have to readjust everything back to what I wanted after a room has been cleaned)."

"Room was clean but had a couple of things in need of repair. Tub faucet handle was laying in the tub. Pushed it on to get by and let staff know. Outlets next to one side of a bed didn’t work either."

How can I get to Athens and get around on a budget?

The most convenient airport is 15.4 mi (24.8 km) from the center in Huntsville International Airport (HSV). However, if that doesn't suit your budget, you can look into flights to Muscle Shoals, AL (MSL-Northwest Alabama Regional), which is 37 mi (59.5 km) away. Athens might not have very many public transit options so a car rental could be a reasonable alternative to explore the area.
