9.6/10 Exceptional! (265 reviews)
I had a King room with a fireplace, it was a nice size room and very clean. The bathroom was nice and they had a robe hanging for me. Little touches like personalized notes and soft drinks in the refrigerator and snacks to pick up for the room. The staff was very friendly. I'm not a breakfast eater so can't really comment on that although there was a nice continental spread and you could order off the menu. I will say that I was a bit disappointed in the restaurant. Had dinner there the night before and for the price, I felt the food was a little lackluster. The bartender was very nice and he was my server as well. All in all I really enjoyed my stay and if I go back to Lexington I would stay there again.
