"The hotel was a bit hard to find, but I got a great room for a good price.2015-10-21 "
"Extremely convenient to Lanier Islands. Great value. The hotel suite was clean and comfortable, and I slept well. Friendly, helpful staff. On my 3rd day, they arranged for my son to stay in the suite next to me, and had it ready before check-in time. Good selection at the continental breakfast, and there were great restaurants across the driveway. Couldn't ask for better. Highly recommend.2015-08-07 "
