Food and Drink Options

The on-site restaurant makes grabbing a bite easy, even after a long night. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the bar and restaurant stay open late enough for a post-show dinner or drink. Guests can enjoy a buffet breakfast in the morning, perfect for sleeping in and refueling the next day. Plus, walkable dining options along West Market Street add variety to your food choices.

Many reviewers mention the ease of parking, convenient location, and good breakfast. It’s considered a dependable, relaxing place to stay after a high-energy night out.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the hotel is slightly dated in spots, especially in the decor. The location is more suburban, so you’ll need a car or ride share to get to downtown venues. However, many find this tradeoff worth it for the peaceful setting and value.
