Has anyone stayed at the Foundry Park Inn or the Hampton Inn in Athens, Georgia?
Last time we went, we stayed at the Courtyard by Marriott, which was fine with me when we booked it since it was most convenient to where we were going, so my boss wanted to stay there. After staying there once, I'd like to avoid it, I think the hotel is more on par with a Fairfield Inn and I was not very impressed with it at all.
So, my next choice would be the Hampton Inn, especially since I have 250,000 points worth of Hilton stays booked in the next few months, I could use the points (that's not a typo ... 1 GLON in London and 1 GLONP in Key West ... 250,000 points, of which I currently only have 35,000 in my HHonors account!). However, looking at Expedia, there's another hotel that looks pretty nice and is downtown, the Foundry Park Inn ... it even has high speed internet access.
Anyway, just wondering if anyone has experience with either of these two hotels I'm considering ... I'm kind of worried about the Hampton Inn, in that it may be an older property, so right now I'm leaning towards the Foundry Park Inn.
