Positive Reviews
positive:
Kitchen facilities.
Guests like the convenience of having kitchen facilities in the room, and you should find most things you need to prepare basic meals and snacks, which can help save money too. Even if you just want to store a few cold drinks, the fridge and freezer are great amenities to have.
positive:
Polite, friendly staff.
Most guests say that the staff are helpful and polite, and will offer a friendly welcome when you arrive. The front desk is staffed 24 hours a day, so if you have any problems, there’s always someone around to ask for help.
positive:
Lawrenceville location.
The proximity to central Lawrenceville is a plus for guests – the hotel is within walking distance or a short drive to the center, and it’s close to the highway if you’re heading into Atlanta or further afield. It also means that there are shops and restaurants close by.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Poor standards of cleanliness.
Guests aren’t impressed by the housekeeping standards, saying that the rooms are dirty. Some of the furniture needs replacing altogether, but the main issues are to do with a lack of basic vacuuming and cleaning of the bathrooms, and you may find a few bugs.
negative:
Not the safest environment.
Guests feel that the local area isn’t the safest, and complain about people hanging about in the parking lot. While the security of the actual building seems ok, it doesn’t create the best atmosphere, and may be a particular concern if you’re arriving alone and at night.
negative:
Smoke odors.
If you want a non-smoking room, you might still arrive to find an odor of cigarette smoke hanging around, since guests say that a lot of the rooms, whether smoking or not, smell like this. It seems that other guests also smoke in the corridors, so the smell gets everywhere.
