8.8/10 Excellent! (206 reviews)

Brand new property! Really nice and large room, everything was basically brand new. I booked this location based on it's proximity to the rental car office, and I was worried that it would be far from everything. NOPE! It was 2 blocks from Cathedral Square, like 1 1/2 block from the park, 2 blocks from tons of restaurants, etc. No worries on location at all! We had the buffett breakfast one day and it was really good too. (we ate at the Apron Cafe on the other day for breakfast and that was good too) Highly recommend!

The art collection is exceptionally fascinating, my biggest concern was that I wouldn’t discover everything in the 5 days there! Delightful property!

The church was closed to the public for a booked wedding. New monolith observatory on the lakefront has destroyed the view of the lake.
