I have go brag on this hotel. We stayed here because we were going to a show at the Orion. The walk was so easy and it was great not to have to sit in traffic leaving the event. The location is convenient to a lot in the area. The hotel was clean and the beds were so comfy I wanted to stay an extra night. The staff were all so friendly and helpful. I had emailed with a special request and the staff accommodated us. We also ate at the restaurant on site and it was really good and service was great! We’ll definitely be returning the next time we visit Huntsville.
