Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was delightful. The rooms were very clean and had all the necessary amenities for unpacking and comfort. The hotel's location was within walking distance of a historic part of town with great dining options. The service was exceptional with the friendliest staff around, making it a special getaway. However, the dining experience could have been better with more variety in Western dishes.
I had a great time staying at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and equipped with a full kitchen, perfect for a comfortable stay. However, the absence of a mini fridge was a minor downside. The service was exceptional, with accommodating staff that made my anniversary celebration extra special. The location was excellent, right in the heart of downtown with plenty of dining options nearby. The only letdown was the lack of on-site dining, but the neighboring juicy burgers made up for it.
I found the hotel to be in a charming, small town downtown area, perfect for a special get-away. The rooms have an urban chic aesthetic and are very attractive, but the service had a small hiccup with a denied service dog. The location is fantastic and relatively easy to find, making it a great pick for a potential wedding reception or just a leisurely stay.
