10/10 Excellent
"We stayed for 2 nights. The location was relatively close to the places we wanted to visit. Our room was clean and spacious. The included breakfast was excellent, with a variety of hot and cold offerings. We would certainly stay here again. One small criticism -- we had booked a "junior suite" in order to have a larger sized bed but had not realized that this "suite" was a "2-story" unit in an unattached second building. Fortunately, the weather was good and walking to the main building for breakfast was not a problem. All in all, this was a minor "complaint" and we were quite satisfied with our stay. Regarding parking, we did not use a car but the hotel's parking lot seemed quite ample."

"This is a great hotel. Period. Amazing location with a parking garage underneath for a reasonable rate, and a sizable room. We traveled with our two adult sons and they each got their own twin size bed, which worked out really well. The breakfast was great and the service and staff were all wonderful. The hotel is actually quite huge, but with several quiet outdoor spaces, it never felt crowded. It was a quick walk to the main sites we wanted to see, so we were very happy with it."
