The Connally Hotel Downtown Atlanta, an Ascend Collection Hotel
Parking is pretty much valet only, but that was fine with me. Mel in the breakfast area was awesome at keeping it clean and stocked. Love the location. So many things to do nearby.

Rooms are outdated. Old wallpaper, walls and ceiling paint needs touching up, wood trim on the bottom of the doors are rotting, box springs old, and worst of all, the linens/towels are only replenished and rooms serviced every 3 days.
