Superb
Liked: We had booked this hotel for one night coming from Charleston and would continue the next morning to Athens. Little did we know at that time, that a certain hurricane named Helene would hit SC, GA and NC quite hard. We arrived in the rain and were happy to find out, that we would be able to use the parking garages on the university campus - so the car was safely stored. We were even happier, that this hotel contains a small café/pub - what a great feature given the weather!The room was nice, and had a nice decoration, clean and spacious.We woke up in the morning without electricity, which was of course not the hotel's fault - the whole block or city was out, but it came back at 7 and so we got a breakfast and were able to walk around in the morning. Quite a lot of trees downed, but that was nothing compared to what we later saw when driving west :(.
Disliked: The way the hotel handled the payments - obviously something like ApplePay (where was that invented by the way?), is not too common here. We had paid the room with ApplePay and put the dinner on the room later. This was the booked during the night as one transaction. At breakfast we asked, if we should pay it directly and everyone said no, of course, that will work if you put it on the room, we will book it later.Well, it turns out it does not, as the concept of ApplePay, GooglePlay and everything similar is hiding the credit card behind a virtual number, which can not be used by just typing it somewhere - it must be authorized for every single transaction at a terminal.We had a lot of discussions by mail afterwards because of that.

Good central location and services...
Liked: Staff at reception were excellent especially as it was such a busy period due to the Hurricane impact. So too was the lady at the bar that evening. Very friendly and helpful. Staff were a credit to the hotel.
Disliked: I felt it was a little overpriced for what it was, in comparison to other options in the area.
