"It's a very well maintained property, very clean and neat. Amenities (breakfast, snacks, soda, water, beer, wine) are great and staff extremely nice (and available). Room (Ivey) was just what we needed, retro decoration, nice bed, large bathroom. Location is great (S. Milledge). Close to University (walkable), can walk to several restaurants and close to sororities/fraternities, but not within hearing distance. Would highly recommend for an upper scale visit to Athens or UGA"

"What a beautiful home! We had a great stay for a Georgia game day and would 100% recommend staying here. Everything is brand new, incredibly clean and beautifully decorated with many wonderful, small details to make your stay seem like home. It is just a 5-10 min drive to campus/downtown Athens. Hosts were very quick to respond and very friendly and accomodating. We will definitely stay here again when we return to Athens! One of the best places we have stayed at."
