Hotels Near ALDI in Athens

This hotel was really good. We were greeted and checked in by a very pleasant employee (sorry I did not catch her name) who recognized us as reward members, gave us 2 bottles of water, told us not only what time breakfast would be offered but even told us what was going to be served, and checked with us after we got to our room to ensure everything was OK. The room was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was as expected and filled as needed. A very nice representation of the brand.

The is the best Holiday Inn Express of 4 that we have stayed in in the last 6 weeks. Online booking was easy, then I called and requested a quiet room away from highway traffic and elevator. Ashley was very personable on the phone . The interior was clean and bright and welcoming. The clerk indicated we would be away from street traffic and elevator; Our room was very quiet where is was located. The bed was fantastic. Room was clean even looked fairly new renovation. Breakfast was very good, nice variety eggs were fluffy bacon crisp the sausage gravy as good as some chain restaurants the ladies taking care of the breakfast area were keeping food and coffee replenished and the counters clean. I spoke with Ashly as we were leaving and told her this was the best of 4 and less money and more value than upstate New York. The only con is that they allow dogs,

I highly recommend Baymont Ive have stayed here multiple times with great service very clean and great breakfast. If you are planning a trip to Athens this is the place to stay. Easy on and off from main highways and only a few minutes every restaurant

This Hotel/Conference Center is perfectly complements the ambience of the gorgeous Ohio University campus. The decor is elegant, with wallpaper murals of the campus, nods to regional history and beautiful color combinations in carpet, walls and furnishings. It has a classic look that does not need to be upgraded to the latest trends of bland, blah colors and metallic furniture! Guest rooms are comfortable and classy. All areas of the property are squeaky clean. The staff is professional and warm, and the location ideal. Cannot say enough good about my experience here.

The AC did not work in my first room so they moved me to a new room late. There were not many food choices nearby.

This is a very nice facility with indoor pool, but staff attitudes were extremely poor. I witnessed several rude interactions with other guests and heard reports of several more. We booked the best room in the place for a week (King Suite with veranda over the pool and jetted tub), but our keys timed out every day until I complained...no excuse for that. Both day and night shift employees shared the same poor attitude, but it was the gal on nights who was just plain rude and off putting, being on the phone with friends more than anything else. The person who appeared to be the day manager was a bit better. All the staff allowed some pretty shady characters they seemed to know to hang out in the back parking lot in their cars for hours on end. These were not guests but probably the local drug dealer posting up in his usual location. That happened every day, well into the evening hours. The motel is located away from the historic downtown, across the river near restaurants, Wal-Mart, etc. It's a great location as it's very easy to drive or ride out of town without fighting traffic. Breakfast does not even qualify as ”continental” with only packaged cereal, packaged danishes, coffee and juice. Without adding to employee work load, the motel could easily add fresh fruit, and many comparable motels offer a LOT more than that. We ate breakfast there ONE morning just to get on the road as quickly as possible; other than that, the offerings weren't even worth the effort of walking into the dining space. Our bed was our biggest problem: In the best room in the place, we got a King mattress that I can only describe as ”sacked out” and very hard. By the time our staff was complete, I had lower back and hip pain. I don't have those problems; it was the bed. That bed is one of the key reasons someone would rent that room at a premium price. The other significant reason to rent the (King suite with veranda and jetted tub) room is, obviously, the jetted tub. Using it was so laborious that we stopped trying after the second use. The faucet's flow was SO slow that it takes AT LEAST half an hour to fill to where the jets are covered when you get in the tub (which is required to turn on the jets, obviously). To get anything like reasonable fill times, I was using the ice bucket to transfer buckets of water from the sink nearby. It still took at least 20 minutes to fill the tub. That's just ridiculous. There was plenty of water pressure and volume in the sink, toilet, and shower; so, it's a problem with the tub fixtures or plumbing, not water supply to the room. I was also unpleasantly surprised that the most expensive room in the motel had a mini-fridge without any freezer at all. That's not premium. During our stay, a storm passed through the area and knocked out all but one leg of 110V power to the motel. This left many rooms without power and knocked out WiFi service and the satellite TV service for more than a day, well after power was restored. Even though power was still in the building, staff did nothing at all to temporarily connect either WiFi or satellite systems to the working power (with an extension cord to the equipment or similar). Lots of tenants left the motel, especially family guests. Staff allowed tenants with power to continue to use AC units in their rooms even though they were surely damaged by running on a single leg of power (on a 220V unit)...that's just irresponsible (although I understand it from a customer service point of view). The pool looks nice, but we didn't use it. It was closed at odd times even though it was supposed to be open 10am to 10pm. On our arrival day, for instance, it was already closed at dinner time (and remained so the whole evening). The hot tub space in the pool area has been bricked up; it doesn't exist now. Housekeeping was very good and extremely responsive to requests. I'd give the motel a 3 of 5 stars at best which is a shame since it's a nice facility with great location.

Great stay. Great service. Our 1st trip in 15 months. The only reason we did not rate a 5 on clean, hotel was under covid rules, rooms were not being cleaned daily, so could not rate this part. What are Trip coins?

We came to Hocking Hills for the Comfort Food Cruise and only stayed Saturday night. We decided we wanted to stay closer to town rather than rent a cabin so we chose this Sleep Inn. Deidre at the front desk was so friendly and helpful, the hotel was clean and very convenient, and the breakfast was a lot considering that we were on our way to eat more! I would definitely stay here again.
