One of the nicest hotels we’ve stayed at and this is our second time there. Very clean, friendly staff. Breakfast was really good. I had stopped eating breakfast in hotels in the morning because the scrambled eggs didn’t taste like real eggs and the sausage usually is bad. This hotel’s scrambled eggs and sausage actually tasted really good and if you want to sleep in, breakfast is served till 10:00 am.

Overall, I would stay there again. Great location… close to some great restaurants and a little downtown walking area. Hall Chophouse for steak and smallSugar for...
