This is not a blow, your socks off property by any means! Dated and just ok. You’ll get the same thing for far less expense at a Sheraton, Hilton or Hyatt. Staff waa nice. There was nothing bad but certainly nothing spectacular or memorable to rave about.

How many days is enough for Amherst?
Amherst vacations come in various shapes and sizes, but to get a true feel for this place, we think 2 days is a good ballpark.
