Room was pretty clean and cozy. We only stayed one night. We got a parking spot in front (lucky us) because the lot was packed. We walked around the area to grabs drinks and food and even to the casino nearby. 9/10 stay.

Wow did we feel like we hit the lottery here! Hotel checked all the boxes for us AND we got to go to a UK football game while we were in town. The shuttle has a stop right a crossed the street from the hotel!! This was an unexpected BONUS for us!! There were several good food options within walking distance as well.
