It was also a Holiday Inn that they renovated and reopened as a Marriott Courtyard.

I will be very surprised if they do much to the hotel. They’ll make more changes to staffing and service then they will to the physical structure and more likely updates to the interior than exterior. Noble runs other properties in Atlanta so go take a look. I think the hotel near Turner field is one of theirs.

I agree that the current design leaves a lot to be desired, but considering it is thirty years old… is not as bad as it could have been. I think it was a considerable risk to build it at all as Decatur’s downtown was a relatively barren place at the time.
