Food and Drink Options

Plus, there are plenty of casual dining spots nearby that stay open late, just a short drive or delivery away.

Nightlife Options

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the decor feels a bit basic and that the location requires a car or rideshare to get downtown. If you're planning to party late into the night, you might miss having a bar on-site—but the peaceful setting is great for recovery.
