Hyatt House Augusta Downtown
This property is very nice. There's plenty of free parking on the road, so we didn't use the parking garage. The staff was friendly and we checked in without a hitch. Our room was immaculately clean and the bed was one of the most comfortable I've ever slept in.

The staff were polite and helpful! The grounds were very nice and clean. The rooms were nice but could have used a little more cleaning, floors and shower wasn't the cleanest. Breakfast had a good selection of hot and cold options.
