1. The Rushmore

Five Points, 0.8 km from University of Georgia

"It's a very well maintained property, very clean and neat. Amenities (breakfast, snacks, soda, water, beer, wine) are great and staff extremely nice (and available). Room (Ivey) was just what we needed, retro decoration, nice bed, large bathroom. Location is great (S. Milledge). Close to University (walkable), can walk to several restaurants and close to sororities/fraternities, but not within hearing distance. Would highly recommend for an upper scale visit to Athens or UGA"

The Rushmore

10/10 Excellent

"Wow! We loved our stay. Our room, the Blythe Suite, was steps from breakfast (quiche, scones, yogurt, mimosas). Despite being in a popular , noisy location, the sound machine and black out shades took care of that. We stayed on a football game weekend and paid about three times the normal rate and we still loved it. You can walk to wonderful restaurants, bars , and the stadium."
