I stayed a night in a suite upgraded room. THe hotel is new and clean, a bit out of the heart of Athens surrounded by strip malls, a Walmart and Krogers is across the street. The staff were friendly and common areas in great condition. I wish the windows would open to get in some fresh air but this is a good newer option a bit further out from the heart of Athens but easy if you have a car. There is also a decent rail trail not far across the road and behind the big stores if you want to run or bike to the OU campus.
