Close to the Smith Center as we watched a basketball game - good spot for the two nights we were in town - both staff members on the front desk we dealt with were excellent !! The only problem was the TV did not work for the first day we arrived.

A little tricky to get to with the service roads but very nice place to stay. Staff was super friendly. Room was comfy and mostly quiet for a hotel. Bathroom fan was very poor. Something to note if you have teenage boys
