This hotel is apparently mainly used for business travelers during the week, so when we went to book it for a family vacation weekend, we got an amazing deal! We ended up with 2 separate bedrooms (one king, one queen), each with its own bathroom. The bedrooms were separated by the living room and kitchen - including stovetop, dishwasher, microwave, sink, full refrigerator and freezer with icemaker (no going down the hall for ice at midnight!). There were televisions in both bedrooms, as well as a tv with dvd player in the living room. Our total for all this luxury was $109 a night (booked online).

This hotel serves more than your average continental breakfast. It included hot food like waffles, eggs, and ham. There is a heated outdoor pool and a small basketball court. There is also a 24-hour minimart in the lobby. There is a library of DVDs you can sign out to your room at no charge.

It was a perfect place to stay for the weekend. You are close to all that Atlanta offers without actually staying in the city, and Alpharetta has some really great shopping and restaurants available, all just down the street from our hotel.

The staff was wonderful - we even had a maintenance guy end his cell phone call to engage our attention-seeking 3-year old in a conversation.

With all there is to do in the area, we are definitely planning to make this a regular weekend getaway for our family!
