I love this place! I've stayed here twice to break up a long trip. It's the perfect place to relax. It's not within walking distance of anything, but you don't need to leave the hotel - the bar and restaurant in the hotel are perfect. I highly recommend this place.

Stayed here years ago. The rooms haven't changed much. The rooms are pretty standard, but the lobby, staff and food are all better than most hotels. Maybe a little old school, but I love the look of the hotel. The bed was really comfortable. The event banquet food has always been wonderful. They can handle the volume of plates without affecting the appeal. Great work!

I reached out to this property a couple days in advance. Because I was going to be arriving quite late, and wanted to make sure that check in at that time of night was alright. I also inquired about a late check out. The property management responded to me within 24 hours and were able to to accommodate me smoothly. Very kind and friendly staff. Room was clean and spacious. I did not access this for my own needs, but I saw that there were beautiful grounds outside too- very well taken care of.
