This property is geat! I am going to be staying there a lot while my daughter is in college! I have stayed there 3 times now and it has been great all 3 times. Staff is helpful and courteous. Rooms are always well stocked and clean!
The facility was very clean and well kept. During check-in the staff was professional and friendly. Ther was no house keeping on Thursday (Thanksgiving) but Holiday Inn and Suite , Athens managed to increase the room fee by $133.00 over the previous day's rate. ONE HUNDRED THIRTY THREE dollars! Less service cost damn near double the price, one hell of a business model.
I was coming into town to visit my daughter at school. I was coming in prior to check in and called to see if they might have a room available early. The receptionist was very friendly and said she would hold me the first one ready. When I arrived 30 mins later it was available and ready for me to check in.
We were woken up early by the fire alarm in the morning. It scared us and we had to hurry and pack up. No staff around to let us know if it was valid or not.
Friendly staff all around...breakfast lady was very attentive and proud of the morning offerings..deservedly so. The sausage gravy and biscuits on Sunday was a pleasant surprise. If visiting your kid at OU, it's about a 45 minute walk to Court St. However, if treating your kid to lunch/dinner, everything is nearby this hotel.
This hotel was located near where I needed to be and that’s why we choose it. The room had a smell of wet dog but not bad. The bed was comfy and clean. All in all I enjoyed my stay. Loved the 12:00 check out.

We visited on a high demand weekend and paid what I’d say were nearly 5-star rates. I get it: supply & demand but I didn’t feel it was a good value. I had to ask for a new room key at least five times as the card reader wasn't working properly. Room was spacious and clean.
