What people are saying:

“I absolutely recommend this place. Great walking distance to the square and the absolute cutest coffee shop a few steps in front!” 

Kristen

“Loved my stay at the Watermelon “Compound.” The room was stylish and quirky and had just about every amenity you could think of available. It’s located in a picturesque little pocket of Marietta — even had an adorable little coffee/pastry stand located mere feet from the front door. Cassi was also very responsive to my messages throughout the whole process and made everything about my stay an awesome experience!”

Gina

“Adorably cozy spot right across the street from a coffee shop–perfect! Clean and comfy, it was exactly what I needed for a quick stay in the Atlanta area. She had lots of suggestions for local food and was great at communication when needed. Definitely recommend!”
 

Teresa

“This place is charming. It’s proximity to downtown Marietta is a plus. We really enjoyed walking and experiencing the neighborhood, which is beautiful. The people are super nice and the coffee shop across the street is an awesome bonus.”

Ashley

“This space was an absolute gem! Convenient accessibility to Marietta square, Kennesaw mountain, and a quick drive to I-75 leads you right into Atlanta. I’m a being who’s always on the go and only need a tiny, quaint space and this was more than I could ask for. Oh, the Sessions Stand across the street started my day off right with the smells of fresh baked goods and coffee fulling the air, be prepared to enjoy your stay.”
