This is a nice option if you don’t mind being out about 20 minutes from campus. It worked great for us! The rooms were big and comfortable. Breakfast was good, not great, but substantial and did the trick to fuel us up for the morning on campus prior to a football game.

Such a nice stay!

We had everything we needed, and once we took into account rush hour, we were happy with our location and with our stay. Everything was very quiet and very clean, and it was nice to have everything we needed in the kitchen.
