What you get
Barcelo at East Cobb Q5 lists a full kitchen with oven, refrigerator, dishwasher and toaster, which is the strongest part of the offer. The apartment also has air conditioning, a fan, free wifi, a desk, a hairdryer, an iron and board, towels and toiletries. Parking is free, pets are allowed, and the rooms are non smoking. There is a bath and a bathroom, coffee is provided, and smoke detectors are fitted. Consider the list thin on outdoor or shared space: nothing here describes a pool, a gym, a garden or a lobby, so your rooms and your parking space are the whole of it.
For a stay of several days, Barcelo at East Cobb Q5 works because you can cook instead of eating out and park without a charge. The desk and the wifi make it usable for work, and pets are allowed, which is unusual. It is not right for a holiday that depends on being in the middle of Atlanta: this is Marietta, and the trip in is by bus, with a bike useful for the last stretch. It suits a longer, quieter stay with a car, and it does not suit anyone who wants to walk out to bars and restaurants.

Facilities, as listed
Where it puts you
These hotels are not in West Midtown. They are not in any of the 24 neighbourhoods this site covers. They sit out in the wider metro, and West Midtown is only the nearest of the neighbourhoods, which is a different thing from close. Treat the city as a trip you make rather than a place you step out into, and plan on travelling for what the loop is known for.
West Midtown itself is warehouses turned into design shops and the densest good eating in the city. No train, and you feel it at rush hour. Bus and bike are the rail options here, not rail, and the trail sits 0.5 mi to trail. If you want the eating and the shops on foot, this is the wrong base. If you want a bed in the metro and a reason to drive in, it works.

Booking it
Book Barcelo at East Cobb Q5 if you want the kitchen and the parking more than you want to be central. Most rooms here can be cancelled free, and you book them through app.impt.io. Every confirmed booking removes one tonne of CO2, at no extra cost to you. Five percent of what you pay comes back as IMPT credit, out of the hotel commission rather than added to your bill.
