Amazing location for the Wild game, church on Sunday at the Cathedral, and numerous great food choices within a 5 minute walk. We will be returning here soon! The only knock on this hotel is the slooooow elevators, but the staff and rooms more than make up for it!

Great location for a concert or event especially in the winter (event site had no coat check). Friendly staff and we got a early check in which we really appreciated. Only gave a 4/5 because the elevators were very slow, the bathroom was small, and the carpet was in rough shape. Employees all great, room was clean, and great location... More
