Great stay!

Room was very nice and clean. Bed was super comfy. Hotel was quiet and honestly we expected a little noise from all the Husker fans at the hotel (us being part of those fans). Bathroom was huge and the shower was instantly hot. Self parking was super easy. Hotel lobby was decorated with vintage Husker gear and memorabilia. Lots of areas to sit. We got coffee and pastries at the The Good Life the morning we left. Prices were very good and coffee/pastries were yummy. We would definitely stay here again!

We spent time in the Well and Good restaurant and the rooftop bar, as well as our hotel room, and all three spaces were wonderful! The staff were very kind and seemed to enjoy doing their jobs. I'll definitely stay here again!

It says there is an EV charger onsite, there is not. It is next door and you can only charge for a few hours before it charges you over 20 dollars an hour, and there is no overnight parking. Also there is a 75 dollar pet fee they do not advertise and “get you with” when you check in. Cost is overpriced for what they offer.
