We loved the very nice restoration of a historic building full of charm. We never saw staff but everything was provided for our stay, from daily maid service to beverages in the communal kitchen fridge. Stying in the center of town was a plus, as most sights, restaurants and shopping were within walking distance. Wayfarer is a real gem in a cute town!

She spruced up our room with healthy snacks, drinks, and two bouquet of fresh flowers in the room. The Americana room was as described newly finished with cold AC and new bedding. The view from the room was a garden view on one side and a open field with barn on the front. We watched peacocks, guinea, horses, goats, chickens, mules, ducks, and cows from the window. Bring your boots to get to the dock then enjoy a canoe or cayak ride while birding or fishing. WONDERFUL spot for a serenity walk of paddle. We would suggest this accommodation for anyone in this area.

The Mountain views were breathtaking as we watched the Sunrise while relaxing in the Hot tub. It was in the perfect location, for peace and relaxation, as well as within minutes from everything you could imagine to do in Town. I recommend that visitors plan to stay at least five days, to be able to enjoy everything that Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg has to offer. This cabin is perfect for small family reunions. It offers a large kitchen area, two fabulous hot tubs and an awesome Game room. Most importantly, Debbie (the cabin owner) made our trip as pleasant and easy going as possible. She was friendly, helpful and has developed a great page on Facebook, that I would recommend anyone to view, if looking for a beautiful family-sized cabin in the Great Smoky Mountains. My family and I will be back to visit this winter, so that we can enjoy the snow as well as the summer to embark on all of the outdoor activities and adventures. I give this cabin a Grade "A" and two "Thumbs Up." Thanks Debbie for allowing us time stay in your Beautiful and Amazing Cabin.

The room I had on the first floor was fairly quiet if one could get used to the highway noise, which died down later in the evening. The air conditioning system was not excessively noisy. The room was clean, but the decor was very basic, with a very plain shower curtain and inexpensive carpets that has a few stains. For the price you are paying, though, one shouldn't expect anything fancy. One thing I didn't like was that the room had some kind of a scent from an air freshener that was a little too strong. I also like to make a cup of coffee in my room in the morning, but the rooms had no coffee maker. The hotel is a basic motel with parking in a court in the middle and two stories of rooms on either side with doors to the rooms directly on the outside. If you are looking for a more secure place with rooms accessed through an interior hallway, this isn't the place for you. All in all, I got a good deal for what I paid and I recommend this place if you just need a place to sleep in the Athens area. The distance to downtown Athens is about 6 miles.

We also caught the tail end of food week in Athens - the food at the Savannah Room was delicious, and the experience indelible. The concierge service was first rate, with young students helping with our bike rental (free) and shuttling to and from the nearby botanical garden. We decided to stay an extra night. The only minor critique, and i mean really minor, is that as they transition to cashless, they haven't changed the washer/dryer from coin op, but we undertand that this is underway. We were caught in a torrential downpour and needed to dry clothes before our flight the next day. Overall, kudos to the UGA Hospitality program for creating a friendly, professional, attentive culture among the staff here.

Nice hotel! Great rooms and nice UGA theming!…read more My main issue with this hotel was the breakfast. The breakfast is a cafeteria-style serving line, except the employees seem to have no knowledge of the menu and cannot listen to requests. I ordered one of the TWO options listed for plates on the menu board, and the server was so confused and had to turn around and see what I was talking about. They also didn't give me everything that the menu board advertised. I'd definitely stay here again, but plan to eat breakfast elsewhere!
