Although the hotel lobby/atrium area is in good shape, the rooms in this hotel need major renovation. I stayed here after a long day of work and was too tired to complain of the following:
Room smelled musty - with a slight essence of dirty cat litter.
Furnishings and carpeting were old and worn.
Bath tub was visibly dirty as well as stained.
Drain in tub had more rust than chrome.
As I went to climb into bed the carpet next to the bed was soaking wet - which explained the awful odor in the room. I dread to think what made it wet - but I will tell you that I rushed to the bathroom to wash my feet!
Water stains on bathroom ceiling.
No "Do not Disturb" sign in room - I had to make a homemade one.
ES - I normally love their breakfast -
Omlette chef was surly and unfriendly. Omlette was undercooked and unappetizing.
Charge of $6.00 to self park car - $10,00 to valet - is unreasonable.
Front Desk staff extremely pleasant and apologetic - however I travel every week and need a clean pleasant place to lay my head rather than comps and apologies.
I stay in Atlanta airport vicinity hotels every few months - I have had better experiences with the Hilton Hotel on Virginia Avenue or the Hilton Garden Inn which is right next door to ES. However, both these Hotels also charge the same fees for parking.

Our flight to Lima, Peru was cancelled so we needed a place to crash for the night. For $99, it was a great value because the van zipped over late at night to pick us up then took us back early the next morning. Breakfast started before the stated time of 6:30am. Room was clean and comfy. The gift shop was supposed to open at 7am but clerk didn't show up until nearly 8am and I really wanted to buy a new shirt since our luggage was still at the airport. Staff wasn't rude but they were indifferent and couldn't care less about checking you in/out efficiently. Not a bad place for one night but I'd look elsewhere if you need business center support.

Stayed one night with my wife and 2 children. The inside of the hotel is typical embassy suites, atrium, restaurant, complimentary breakfast, etc. The rooms are nothing really special other than being suite. The breakfast was ok. The restaurant in the hotel was decent but expensive and terribly slow. No exaggeration. Overall though, above average hotel.

My family stayed at this location for one night. The rooms are run down and are not typical for a ES property. The lobby and forum areas were well kept and looked great so we were dissapointed in the condition of our room. The windows had a lot of smudges and sunbstances on them that viewing out was eliminated because we kept the curtains closed to avoid looking at them. The hotel staff was friendly and coutious except the valet. He was very rude and when addressed the manager on duty she went over and corrected the situation promptly and waived the $6 self parking fee ($10 if they park your car)
I will not stay at this hotel again until major renovations occur. The hotel is just not up to par for an ES.
