The location was great, unfortunately the place was so filthy we were not able to enjoy the stay and do not recommend. Tried to communicate with the owner and they offered zero assistance to remedy our issues. It wasn’t until I contacted Vrbo directly that the owner responded with a small refund.

Location was the absolute best. A block from court, on frat row, and walkable to anywhere you want to go! We had to push our stay back a day and host was very accommodating and prompt with making it work for us. The attic apartment had everything we required with the charm of Athens & the vibe of OU. However, I’m sorry to say, there’s a scent that permeated even the pillows and was inescapable. I’m very familiar with the “old house” smell, having lived several years renting in Nelsonville & Athens. The smell was beyond anything nostalgic. A thorough cleaning would definitely help and was needed. My recommendation to renters would be to buy (which we did) room air fresheners, bring your own sponge for the dishes (the ones provided were old & dirty) and fresh linens/pillows (the linens on the bed were clean but needed refreshed as they had taken on the scent of the apartment). The cleanliness and smell were disappointing because otherwise, this would’ve been the perfect rental.

The location of this apartment is great. One street over from court street. The apartment is on the 3rd floor so be ready to climb a lot of stairs. Which is nothing new if you’re familiar with the hills of Athens. The apartment was clean, well stocked with basic necessities. Recommend for anyone that wants to spend a weekend uptown in Athens.

Perfect Location

I was visiting my daughter in college and it was the perfect location. I could walk to her residence hall and to all the restaurants around campus. Locating the property was easy and the instructions to enter the property were clear and effective. It was nice to have a parking spot too. The accommodations were clean and comfortable.
