Reviews for Bull Dog Inn - Athens
Review 1：Nothing
Review 2：Low price super convinant.we were in town for Cole Swindel concert And uga game .Room was clean and in a great location don't let the Outside fool you. Will defiantly Stay again.
Review 3：The dirty used towel hanging over the shower rod. Only one towel in the joint. The smell of smoke. The sticky carpet. The burn holes in the bedspread. The window about to fall out. Should I keep going?
Review 4：It was a bed.
Review 5：They charged 1 around $180 for one night the room reeked of deoderizersperfumes to mask the obvious cigarette smells - could hardly sleep thebeads where worn out the sheets and towels were old the desk chair andarm was damaged
Review 6：They were no hangers for clothes no iron and not enough towels no shampoo, it was dusty it had no water pressure or was it hot enough for a shower !! Not worth the money!
Review 7：You get what u pay for !! Have u heard that befor
Review 8：There were bugs crawling on the walls, a man down the hall exposed himself to my boyfriend, we had to harbor two girls who were scared for their safety, the toilet didn't flush, there was a pair of women's underwear in the bed when we arrived, there were strange stains on the towels... $350 for 2 nights... need I say more?
Review 9：Leaving. Also, proximity to Athens, but mostly leaving.
Review 10：There was no toilet paper in the bathroom. Cockroaches crawling on the walls and in the bathroom. Couldn't get front desk on the phone or in person for two hours. Filthy room.
Review 11：No shampoo or conditioner. It was bad service because the Man at the front desk couldn't understand or speak english!! I do not recommend this place unless you are desperate.
Review 12：The room was okay.
Review 13：This is an older roadside Motel. But, it was clean and maintained. I was able to park my truck right out front of the motel. My lower back pain had me in a bad way. But, because of it being on 1 level, I was able to walk straight across to the door. I liked being able to look out the window and see my truck and trailer.
Review 14：We were there for graduation weekend and had our 4 adult children staying at this hotel. They talked to the front desk that there was a problem with the toilet flushing and no one even offered to come fix it. They were fortunately only staying the one night and just went to sleep for a few hours and got out of there early.
Review 15：The mattresses looked 30 years old. Room wasn't clean. Sheets were too small for mattress. Door key wouldn't work. Finally just decided to book elsewhere. Steer clear of this place. It's awful.
Review 16：It didn't look anything like the web site pictures. The roomsmelled, the carpets was soiled and dirty, the linen had cigarette burnsin it, the cleaning staff was scary, look like drug addicts from ahalfway house, it was in disrepair, and worst my grandson and I now havebumps all over us from bed bugs, that we informed the manager of, whodidn't offer a refund, but to get us another room @ 11:00 @ nightwhen we were leaving he next day, This place is worse than the Batesmotel, & a disgrace...
Review 17：It was near uga, which is where we were going for a couple of days
Review 18：The Price gouging for football games, and they make you book the whole weekend not just one day.
Review 19：Nothing to complain about great location to down town beds were comfy room was clean. Just your ordinary Hotel. Definitely would stay here again.
Review 20：The staff was rude. They never wanted to give towels or the 1 run down iron they had. Could barely understand them. Only stay if you purely need somewhere to sleep. The back area is full with sketchy people.
Review 21：Close to downtown Athens.
Review 22：They don't even clean your room, the shower didn't even have the regular handles and seemed to be "jimmy rigged" so you could turn the water on
Review 23：first room i got there was someone in it that told us they'd be out in 2 minutes when we went to the front office i told the clerk that someone was in the room already and she put us in a new room .. when unloading the vehicle the guy found us and made a point to let us know he had a master key to the hotel and to please not say anything to the clerk. we didn't have heating or air in the room so they gave us a space heater the towels were tiny the sheets had burn holes the toilet had pee and pubes all over them
Review 24：comfy beds nice showers i got my monies worth
Review 25：Filthy, nasty. I wouldn't let my dog sleep there. Went for a UGA football game, and it was the only property available. So unsavory that we drove to Atlanta at 2 am rather than spending the night.
Review 26：Front desk was very rude. I had to call housekeeping and ask if they could come and clean my room. No clean towels, and hotel had alot of prostitution and drug addicts.
Review 27：Smell was bad not worth the price we paid looked like 100 yr old hotel , smell like smoke

Review 49：Old carpet. Some traffic noise.
Review 50：Cheapest place in Athens. Not bad. 2 miles to downtown & university. Nice bed.
Review 51：Everything else.
Review 52：It is within walking distance to downtown Athens, GA.
Review 53：The facility was clean, but old. Not as conveniently located as other hotels in the area.
Review 54：The people were nice and very accommodating.
Review 55：Non-smoking room with cigarette burn holes in bedding Bathroom plumbing (shower) inoperable You DON'T get what you pay for
Review 56：Easy to locate Price
Review 57：You have to think outside the box....when you drive up, it kind of reminds you of Bate's Motel..... Could definitely use a facelift...property a bit run down. But with that being said, we wanted to support a local business.
Review 58：They had brand new mattress and bed was comfortable.....Staff was friendly.The reviews on here are over the top...it wasn't that bad.
Review 59：Although Booking.com said there was only one room left, when we arrived late there was only one other car in the parking lot. A place like this would be allowed on Booking.com. The sheets did not appear fresh. The sign with lights in it was unlit, leading to the the feeling it was a very run-down dilapidated place. The price we paid was nearly double what I would expect for this level of accommodation. The front desk was behind bullet-proof glass, leading to the feeling that the place was unsafe. We stayed because my sister-in-law said the University of Georgia recommended it to families visiting their children. Creepy! Most uncomfortable I have been in a motel/hotel. Booking.com did not make it clear whether I would owe anything if I didn't take the room.
Review 60：We were tired and it had a bed.
Review 61：Found an empty vodka bottle under the bed, no tissues, yucky grout. I called because the fire alarm was beeping because it was running out of battery. The first time I called the lady hung up on me. The second time she said she'd be right there. After waiting two hours, I pulled the fire alarm off the wall and took the battery out, and left a note for the house keeper (if there was one). I stayed several nights and no one ever took it or replaced the battery.
Review 62：Cheap. Close to campus, sort of.
Review 63：Rooms were not nice , beds not restful , bath rooms not good shower not working well, face cloths and towels were dingy and not white , they were old and brownish.
Review 64：The price per night. Still felt like it was overpriced.
Review 65：The bathroom door did not close, there was no lock on the main door to keep anyone with a key out (we had the bolt locked under the door handle, but housekeeping was still able to walk right in). We nearly had to beg for towels every day. I asked for a different room, because of the doors, and they said there weren't any more available, but as soon as I told them I was checking out early, they offered me a different room.
Review 66：I have stayed at many places around the world and I can officially certify that this is the MOST WORST place I have ever stayed in. I cant even say it is third world, it should be fourth world
Review 67：For the $80 we paid, it was way overpriced. It was a little scary. Wehad stayed there years ago when our daughters were @ uga, so we knew itwas no "Ritz Carlton". However, I guess I'm not asadventurous as I used to be...It's just old with the barestessentials. I wouldn't turn on the heater because I was afraid toomuch dust, mold, etc., might come out. Would I stay there again if therewere no other rooms available on Homecoming Weekend? Maybe, but I'lltry to find a room a little earlier next year.
Review 68：We liked that we had a place to stay after the football game &didn't have to drive 5 hours back home.
Review 69：Staff is not very friendly. No curtain liner in the shower so the flooris standing in water when you are finished and had cracks the flooredges and tub. Just not a comfortable place to hand out.
Review 70：The sheets were clean, but I had brought some just in case because ofthe reviews I had read. It was ok to just sleep and shower. Only stayedbecause everything else was booked.
Review 71：Everything. Most of all a gentlemen who was harassing me while I wasgetting into my car. Wanting yo know what room I can out of and who Iwas with!! Not a safe place to stay at all!!!
Review 72：Don't sleep on the sheets. Not a place for families.
Review 73：All of the reviews made it sound worse than it was. We came in town fora football game and it was not as bad as we thought. We stayed in a roomon the front side and it wasn't too bad for the price.
Review 74：Everything!!! I don't understand why this place isn't shut down yet. The sink was dirty, the faucet in the tub was barely screwed on, the light switch on the wall barely hung on, tv channels were scribbled inside a drawer, the window curtain was missing hooks. The whole place was really awful. Never in my life will I stay here again. I would not let my worst enemy stay here.
Review 75：I felt like I was not safe. Four police cars were out back when Iarrived. The locks on the door were broken. People were walking back andforth outside the door talking loudly all night. It was very dirty, andthe staff were swearing and arguing with the owner after I arrived. Ihad booked the room for a week online, assuming it was just anothercheap hotel - nothing special, but fine. I arrived and checked in,immediately felt unsafe and once I saw the room, and was disgusted,tried to get my money back. However, I was told I had to pay for onenight. I stayed one night then left in the morning, and found anotherhotel for the rest of the week, a similiar priced Days Inn that was anormal cheap hotel - clean and safe. I should never have stayed thatnight - I slept terribly. I would never stay in a hotel like this again.
Review 76：Nothing. The hotel was awful.
Review 77：There was nothing to like.... And they would not refund our money. I didnot feel safe, there was a hole in the door! We did not spend the nightthere. I lost my money!
Review 78：nothing the place is a Dump
Review 79：Place is just old and run down.
Review 80：It was a flop house, and could do just 1 night in Athens on game day.
Review 81：Had to get shower and toilet fixed. Dirty. Sheets didn't fit thebed. Drugs being traded outside.
Review 82：Good water pressure
Review 83：Most everything about the Inn
Review 84：leaky plumbing, dirty room
