What you get
Modern Retreat in Decatur is a four star property on Convair Lane, and the facility list reads like a house rather than a hotel. The kitchen side is complete: oven, microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, toaster and coffee, with a washing machine, iron and board, and laundry service behind it. Bath and shower come with towels, toiletries and a hairdryer. There is air conditioning, a fan, heating is covered, and the property lists free wifi, free car parking and a garden with a patio. Family rooms, a sofa bed, a safe, a TV, smoke detectors and first aid are listed. Bars appear on the list, and that is the thin part: no restaurant, no gym, no pool, and nothing that reads as a lobby.
For someone staying in Greater Atlanta, that list points to a self sufficient stay. You park free, you cook if you want to, you wash clothes on site, and you use the garden and patio when the weather allows. Room service and cleaning are listed, so it is not entirely do it yourself, and the wifi covers work or streaming. Modern Retreat in Decatur suits families, groups and anyone staying several days who would rather have a kitchen than a breakfast room. It does not suit a traveller who wants a front desk, a restaurant downstairs or a short overnight stop.

Where it puts you
These hotels are not in Decatur. They are not in any of the 24 neighbourhoods this site covers. They sit in the wider metro, off-loop on the east side, and Decatur is simply the nearest of those neighbourhoods, close enough to be the default answer to where you are. It is not where you are sleeping.
That matters when you plan your days. The square, the restaurants and the rest of what the loop is known for are a trip away, not a stroll from your room. Decatur itself is its own small city six miles out, with a square, a rail station and the best restaurants-per-capita in Georgia. It has the Decatur, Blue/Green rail stop, while the hotels themselves sit off the loop. Suits anyone who wants the east side and a base outside the city proper, and anyone driving in. Wrong if you pictured walking out your door into Decatur.

Booking it
Book this one directly if you want the whole house setup rather than a room, since the kitchen and laundry are the reason to choose it. 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.
Facts on this page come from the booking supplier's record: star class, address, photographs and facility list. Guest scores come from verified stays. We have not stayed here; the neighbourhood copy is our own.
