Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
By far the best kept hotel myself and my husband have ever stayed at. We raved about it the entire 4 day stay. Staff went above and beyond, cleanliness was out of this world and location exceeded our expectations. 10/10 stay!
Quick check in and check out, staff friendly and helpful. Room clean and comfortable. Breakfast although a little pricey, it was good and helped start my day!! Literally right around the corner from the Bible Museum!! I would definitely recommend it.
