Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
Yes
Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Booked cheapest, upgraded 2 categories to King Club on Club Floor
How are the rooms?
Comfortable, nothing outlandish. Bathroom has shower and oversize tub (no Jacuzzi).
How is the exec. lounge?
Good. Continental breakfast plus eggs and bacon and oatmeal.
Afternoon snacks, dried fruits.
Dinnertime, fairly big selection - enough snacks to feed you if you don't fee; like going out.
Did you receive a welcome gift?
Fruit basket, with some nuts and dried fruits, water.
How was the minibar?
Above average selection, white, red and champagne. Could do better on beers.
What was good and what was bad?
-Good
Friendly.
Great Bourbon bar and southern restaurant.
Above average Club
Good location if you want to do stuff in Buckhead; walk one block to the MARTA station (which goes to the High Museum and to the Airport)
-Bad
$24 for garage parking, ten bucks or so more for valet, is a bit high for a suburban area.
Club was rather full over the weekend, a number of families with kids; ran out of table space to eat and some of the food ran out.
Value for $ or Priority Club Points?
Weekend rates are good.
Would you return?
