Best Western Athens Inn

We were in Athens AL this past weekend for a pow wow and stayed here for 3 nights. We walked in to a very clean lobby. Josh checked us in quickly and was super nice and friendly! We had reserved a 1st floor King and Josh asked us if we wanted the first room from the lobby or one further down. During our stay, Josh asked us if we needed anything and if everything was okay. Best Western Athens Inn is lucky to have him...he is a GEM! We were very pleased with our room. We did experience a problem with the frig cooling but that was taken care of almost immediately after being reported to Laura. When I saw her later on, the first thing she asked was whether the frig was working better. The bed was comfortable as were the 4 pillows provided. Coffee is available 24/7 in the lobby and they also have a jug full of water and ice. The breakfast area is kept clean and there was fruit, yogurt and cartons of milk, along with the normal items such as tea bags at all times while we were there. Hot items include a pancake maker, instant grits & oatmeal, sausage patties, biscuits, sausage gravy and scrambled eggs each morning. There is also a variety of dry cereal, bagels, muffins, and other normal offerings. Every staff member we crossed paths with during our stay acknowledged us in some way and were friendly if we stopped to chat a bit. All in all, we were very pleased with our stay and would not hesitate to stay here again if coming to or passing through Athens AL. less

Since we travel between Michigan & Alabama a few times a year, we always stop for the night at this Best Western. Always have had great service & a nicely renovated clean room. This visit we even had the chance to enjoy the nice pool & deck area. less

No maid service. When i returned to my room, front desk could only tell me that the maids leave at 3. I could come to the front desk IF I wanted some clean towels. No offer of discount. No offer of a clean room. less

This place is probably the best motel bargin in North Alabama. The staff (especially the room maintenance and cleaning people) are excellent, Easy on - off access to I-65. Check-in and check -out only took 3 minutes (total). The breakfast was hot / on time / plenty of fresh prepared food available (good job by the serving an cooking personnel). Can't say enough good things about this place. less

My wife and I were traveling with our two grandchildren. The girls enjoyed the pool, and staying at a real motel. This was not a five star motel, but it was clean, the personal were friendly, and the breakfast was good. I would recommend this Best Western to anyone looking for an economical motel. less
