What guests think

At The Abernathy, travelers highlight an excellent walk-to-campus location, very spacious and comfortable rooms, and consistently friendly, helpful staff, with many also praising the property’s overall cleanliness, easy parking, and a welcoming lobby bar for drinks.

Food service is limited or inconsistently available, breakfast is not included, and the small cafe can feel understaffed. There is no gym, and a few guests report missed housekeeping or areas needing deeper cleaning. Expect a comfortable, convenient base for Clemson visits with friendly service and big rooms.

Property was convenient and comfortable. A deep cleaning is needed as there were stains on shower floor and other area of the room. Air conditioner cycling on and off through the night was disturbing to sleep. Layout of the room was nice with couch/chairs and table for additional seating.

The property was very clean, especially for a pet-friendly hotel. The room smelled clean as soon as I walked in the door. The staff was extremely friendly. The lady that greeted me when my family arrived that night was great and friendly. The two ladies (forgive me I don't remember names) were great as well. They were also extremely accommodating by allowing us an extra hour before we checked out. Also, one staff member helped me take some pictures and completed connected with my daughter! Lastly, if you are staying for a visit to Clemson, this is prime location!

I gave this property a one star because I always pull the fitted sheet off the bed to check for bed bugs and as i did that the mattress pad had splatters of blood on it. Needless to say I was grossed out. The front desk girl was able to track down housekeepers and they changed it out so i give the service a 4 star for fixing it. I just couldn’t believe someone put it on the bed when it was obvious there was blood on it. They gave us two free breakfasts. It’s super close to campus and Esso which was great.

We had a late check in and as anticipated, no food or beverage available. Front desk clerk was not the epitome of southern charm; no alternative options suggested. It was a great room but when I asked for a later check out since I got in at 11:30 pm she said she couldn’t accommodate us and to ask someone else after 8 am. We just packed up early, went on our tour and hit the road. I’d stay again if I were coming in earlier. There should be a mini-bar in room for drinks and snacks since there was no floor vending machine either.

Neither was true my first night or next morning meaning on both occaisions I had to go out to find food. Ii had just driven 6 hours and really did not want to go out. Same the next day with the funeral activities beginning at noon. Dont advertose if you intend to deliver!
