Great hotel! The restaurant on site has very good food and appetizers! We ate there multiple times. We were returning from a conference late every night and it was nice to have a restaurant & bar right there. Bartender Felicia was super friendly. Our room was clean with a comfy bed. We also really enjoyed the artwork in the hallways which was replicas of old photos, not that modern junk. We also enjoyed the hot tub and heated pool, which are outside, but under an event tent structure so the air wasn’t too cold.
