Hotel was closed to many restaurants and right off the highway. The beds and pillows were extremely uncomfortable which was surprising since other reviews commented on how comfortable they were. Maybe we just had older rooms. Staff were friendly.

Terrible stay
Property was not clean and the beds were super worn out. So much so they were collapsing on the sides and very noisy. As a person with autoimmune issues, plush beds are a must. Will never stay here again!

When we first checked into our room the covers were soaking wet and the room smelled old and musky. when we called down to the desk to let them know they were very friendly and changed our rooms. Once our room was changed the beds were pretty comfortable and for an older hotel it was nice.

Appreciated the room having 4 towel sets by default, all very clean and white. Desk chair was nice. No tissue box. Only one outlet by the beds, which was on the lamp. Not much parking. Renovated rooms.

The Athens, AL Best Western was clean and comfortable, and breakfast was available early, which is great when you are near to the Eastern/Central time-zone boundary. A day's drive north from Tampa, this was a great choice along my way.
