We stay here when we come up for concerts. We also like to stay an extra night to give us time to talk around. Any food or last minute needs we have are all usually found within a 15-20 minute walking distance(with a Kroger less than a 10 drive away). The staff is always great and rooms are always clean and modern. I will continue to return.

smelly slippers

So my stay was great all around -- the only thing is: the free slippers that come with the bathrobe smell HORRENDOUS -- someone should unwrap a pair and see what I mean -- I immediately closed them in a trash bag. Other than that - the stay was wonderful!! i will certainly return
