We stayed at the Ellison for 3 nights and can not recommend this hotel highly enough. The rooms are spotless and comfortable and a generous size, the location is central with great parking. But above all the staff are absolutely wonderful, we were there last minute for a family funeral and the staff could not have been more accomodating, Patsy especially was so accomodating it made a difficult situation so much easier.
