Disappointed
My sheets were yellow, and the top sheet was torn. There was coffee left in the coffee pot. On the pull out there was food on it and a green lighter. It is probably still there didn’t pick it up. There is no security. It was very expensive for all of this. The bananas on the breakfast thing were black, the creamer curdled in my coffee.
We were in Room 215 for a college visit. I wish I would have stayed at the university hotel.

Best Stay in Athens
I stay at the Athens Central when I visit my son at OU. This hotel is the best, and my number 1 recommendation for the area. The location can’t be beat, the rooms are comfortable and spacious, the staff couldn’t be friendlier and were most helpful. The hotel is located in a safe area and grounds were clean inside and out.

Could have been better.
I ran out of tolet paper and had to use tissues. The cook was sick, so breakfast was not up to par, but they gave me a coupon for next time I stay. My room was so close to two busy streets, so could here the traffic outside. The room was great, very roomy.

This property was a 5 star in every respect. The front desk was very professional and made a great dinner recommendation. The location was close to campus town but still quiet. The room was clean and we enjoyed the updated decor. The hot breakfast had a nice variety and was very good. We would definitely stay at this location again.
