  • The hotel appeared clean and the staff friendly.
  • The breakfast was A1

Cons -

  • The value for very basic amenities was sub-par. I realize that the B\"brand" Garner is a budget model, but the price should reflect this modesl.
  • The bathroom smelled like marijuana. At first it was only the bathroom, so we closed the door. However, by the time we returned from dinner the whole room smelled like marijuana.
  • The tv was discolored the elevator looked worn down everything looks old and outdated

Staff wee great and location perfect for what we had going on In Aiken.

The shower was dirty, also didn’t have the soap dispenser filled ( good thing I had brought a bar of soap) floors were dirty, very thin walls, windows and doors. You could hear everything going g on outside and I dice the hotel. Breakfast was terrible not many options.
