Bad

Liked: Location is convenient for the area.
Disliked: Does not accept dogs but didn't mention that anywhere when I booked. We found out at midnight when we arrived very tired and had to go find a different hotel. Did not try to help us rebook, the person at the front desk just told me about another hotel that was 40 minutes away.

A very good stay

Liked: Good location close to things but high on the hill. Comfortable spacious room, helpful staff and a tasty breakfast (veggie omelette and turkey sausage). I would look forward to staying here again.
