We came into town to see a concert and were very happy with the location of the hotel! The venue was walking distance away, and we enjoyed the Dinosaur Bar B Q right across the street. The staff was very helpful, providing me with a map of the area and explaining the walking route to the venue. Our room was very comfortable and clean. We like the fact that we were able to watch Netflix using our own account information. We will definitely be back!
