“Clean and comfortable, nicely appointed”
The room is very nicely put together, , in terms of the interior architecture, and nicely appointed for a hotel in this class. Everything, most esp. the bed and the combination of reading chair and desk chair, was comfortable.

“Great place to stay downtown. Hygiene could be better,”
Hotel Indigo in Athens Georgia is a classy hotel full of style. It’s in a great location, within walking distance from downtown. I stayed in one of the penthouses on the top floor. Great room, again much attention is paid to the design of the room. I really felt at home. Staff at the hotel is friendly.
