The location was perfect! Everything we wanted to do was within walking distance. Mike on the front desk was so friendly and professional. He genuinely seemed to care that we have a fabulous time. The rooms and hallways are a bit dated and could use some updates, but overall it is a very nice hotel and we would definitely stay there again.
