Longleaf is a great alternative to the larger chain hotels. Our room was comfy and clean. Parking was easy. We walked to dinner. The lounge was fun for an after dinner drink. Highly recommend!

Stayed overnight at the Longleaf and loved it. The rooms are immaculately clean. Kudos to housekeeping. The beds and linens so comfy. Love the retro style. The lounge is cozy with nice cocktails, and we loved the patio to enjoy drinks and coffee outside. Lauren at the front desk was very helpful and welcoming. Front desk Manager Anna was also so helpful and pleasant. The bar staff were attentive and friendly. Parking a plus. Regina from NY will be back.
