Our stay was so pleasant! The staff was so nice, helpful, and friendly. Devonte, Jayla, Adrianna, and Denise were just so amazing! Devonte helped me with my reservation when we had an illness in the family. The front desk representatives (Jayla and Adrianna) were the best, and Denise had a beautiful, bright smile every morning at breakfast. We were there for three nights and our room was perfect. It was a really great vacation! I would highly recommend this location if you are looking for a clean, comfortable, quiet location.

Room was a good size and clean. Water pressure in the shower was good. We stayed here because of the close proximity to Emory Hospital. We come to the hospital at least twice a year and will stay at this location again.
