Springhill Suites Marriott

Awesome service at 3 am! Very hospitable and loved the room. Can improve the breakfast but it’s typical.

I enjoyed my stay here completely. The lobby and room were both beautiful and the staff was wonderful to deal with. I stayed here for a wedding and was so pleased with the hotel. The room cleaning staff were so nice! I ran into them in the hallway and the loaded me up with little shampoos when I asked. They even gave me a bunch of extra coffee for my room when they realized I drank some. If I am ever in the area again I will gladly return here.

This place is one of the best hotels I’ve stayed at in terms of cleanliness, pricing, service, and convenience. Every time I come here, the room feel new and clean.
The only drawback is their internet does not allow you to send out emails via Microsoft Outlook. It can be really inconvenient if you’re a businessman who needs to use email all the time. The Courtyard in downtown athens will let you, but it’s not as clean.

We stayed here while visiting our UGA student, it is 8 miles from campus. Granted if you don’t have a car it may not work out for you. But if you do, the savings is pretty significant and in our opinion well worth it. It is nice to stay somewhere you don’t have to tip or get charged an extra fee everytime you turn around. This SpringHill is the nicest I have ever stayed at. I tend to not be a huge fan of the SHS’s and usually avoid them if I can. However, we will definitely stay here again. The décor in the rooms and the hotel is modern and cute. They keep it very clean, and are extremely friendly and helpful. We stayed in a King Suite and while it isn’t super large, they did a nice job in creating 2 separate spaces making a long stay a little more enjoyable.
You get free Wifi which we had absolutely no issues with and we were running 2 computers on it from our room. Free parking and free breakfast. Eggs, fresh waffles, coffee, muffins, sausage, yogurt, cereal, grits, oatmeal and a few other items I believe. We also used the pool during our stay. It is small but it was quiet, we had it to ourselves and had a nice day there. The hotel is surrounded by trees and not a concrete jungle and it was nice to hang at the pool and listen to birds chirping. In room you get a coffee maker, mini fridge, microwave and bar sink. All little things that can save you several bucks if you are staying more than one day.
It was clean, comfy and a bargain and we will definitely be back when visiting our student.

I was seriously disappointed in this stay– I have always had excellent experiences at Marriotts and have started exclusively staying at them when possible, and while most of my experience was fine the things that grated on me were big enough to spoil the trip.
The entire facility was very clean and neat, and the front desk staff was extremely friendly and personable. I loved that instead of peppermints or some other run of the mill candy, they had those chupa chups lollipops at the front desk. While some places are really strict about taking breakfast down at 9a, they seemed to keep it up as long as people were coming down, which was nice not only for late risers but because the food gets eaten instead of tossed. Breakfast was your average hot breakfast– waffle iron, grits, oatmeal (w/​brown sugar and raisins for add ins!) plus cereal with soy and regular milk, bagels and toast with cream cheese, honey, and jams.
There is free wi-​fi but I found it to be entirely sketchy and unreliable; I eventually gave up trying to get any work done so I’ve been working all weekend to catch up on things I should have been able to get done after my conference let out for the day.
The next biggest problem came with the construction. The walls were paper thin and the door had an huge gap at the bottom so whenever someone opened a door or knocked on a door it sounded like someone was trying to get in to MY door. I woke up every time! The other problem was the gap let in an enormous amount of light and was right in eyeline with the bed. Every time I rolled over facing the door I was woken up by the light!
Back on the upside, there are elipticals and treadmills on site, and there’s admission to the gym next door. There’s free parking (one of the reasons I’m big on Marriotts, they tend to buy property that allows them on site parking), and it’s quite convenient to Athens proper and several stores and shops nearby. The rooms also come with a microwave, sink, and refrigerator.
IF I stay here again, I would bring earplugs and plan on setting pillows or a blanket down at the bottom of the door. If I had known this ahead of time, it would have left me only with a bad taste in my mouth about the wi-​fi. (I was in town for a professional conference and was supposed to be working remotely.)

I love Springhill Suites and this one is no exception. Great stay, clean facility and while it may be a little off the beaten path Trader Joe’s is very close — Yeah for healthy food options when traveling.

This place restored my faith in Marriott. I was very pessimistic after my last experience at the Marriott in LA which was expensive and had smelly rooms.
This place reminds me of the W chain. Very chic, convenient and inexpensive. They have free internet, expansive hot breakfast, free admission to the huge gym next door, pool, free parking and very nice big clean rooms. Service was great too.
All the other Marriotts should take some tips from this place.
