The hotel is very nice and the rooms are great. My only complaint is about the breakfast. It's worse than the ones I've had at lower-priced hotels. I've stayed at the hotel twice, and the only thing you serve is a mediocre breakfast burrito and cheap pastries. Houlihan’s can do better.

Nice hotel, convenient location, friendly service. My only complaint is that parking was a challenge-they need to have dedicated parking for hotel guests because with an event going on in the conference center the parking is very full.

A hidden gem. Highly recommend

This trip was booked last min. because of a family emergency. Although hubby and I spent a lot of time at Carle. The overall stay at the hotel was great. This will always be our go-to when we visit family. The staff is very friendly. The breakfast was delicious. We rarely eat breakfast at the hotel. I was able to sit outside and listen to the calming waters when my mind began to race. Thank you for making this part of our trip very enjoyable.
