I didn’t realize this was a motel (exterior doors). The room was filthy! A disgusting film on the floor, and visibly had what looked like mouse droppings on the vanity and bathroom sink. The shower was dingy, with dirty grout. It makes you question every single surface! The fact that they market themselves as “upscale” is revolting!

I loved the look of the hotel. It felt like I stepped into the 1950's. I also loved the connections to UGA with some of the decor. I would stay here again.

Not worth the money!
The room was nice but, after the 3rd night we walked across the floor and it was filthy! No maid service unless you request it which we weren't told about at check in! We contacted the front desk and told them about the problems and they were friendly and understanding about the problems! They did send clean towels. We checked out a day early because my husband was so upset with the whole situation! Will not stay there again! Not worth the money!

Rooms are very quiet except for some outside noise (Athens is busy on weekend nights!) Had a food/bev credit that I tried to redeem on checkout day & I got some push back on that. Weird. But the women working at the coffee bar were very accommodating about it. Especially Abby. Hard to figure out what’s available for food/bev, and hours. No real info in rooms or upon check-in.

Go elsewhere.
As soon as I got there the person at the front desk was rude. Then I realized it was a converted motel. Overall it was like the saying “lipstick on a pig” like they tried to paint over a gross old motel. Wallpaper peeling, the bathroom was disgusting and the shower looked like it was left over from 1982 and the grout was all brown and I didn’t want to get in barefoot. I immediately wanted to book elsewhere but knew I wouldn’t get my deposit back. Some outlets didn’t work, the finishes were just flimsy and cheap. Doors to the cupboard where the mini fridge was wouldn’t close and the mini fridge wasn’t cold and came all the way out every time you tried to open the door. Overall I was frustrated that it had the quality of a cheap motel but at the price point of a nice hotel.

Hotel Abacus is a lovely hotel that stands out from the faceless chains of comparable quality. The rooms and entire property are delightfully decorated, giving the hotel a sense of place and personality. The cafe was convenient and the offerings were very fairly priced and generously proportioned. This is our new go-to when staying in Athens.

I love this property and the staff!! It does need some updates to the bathrooms as they are showing some wear but you can't beat being able to walk to downtown Athens and campus.
