We really liked the fact that the hotel was close to downtown where the cycling event started. We were not happy about the fact that as cyclists in town specifically for a cycling event that takes place yearly that we could not bring our bikes into the hotel and into our room. I understand that there was an"incident" and therefore now they have a no bike, skateboard or rollerskate policy. Our bikes are several thousand dollar bikes and for us to have to leave them in our vehicle when there is more than ine bike was a huge inconvenience. This is the 1st hotel i have stayed in during my 16 yrs of cycling where we were told no bikes allowed. Nice hotel, clean rooms, great breakfast and close to start line for cycling event but will not be staying here again due to the no bike policy.
