9.2/10 Wonderful! (979 reviews)

The hotel itself was good accommodations. Room was clean and well designed. Staff did not accurately communicate how parking worked with the designated lot creating some issues. Lot is isolated about a block away and accessible by a narrow alley.

I discovered this little battlefield park while on a walk with my boyfriend. Having only lived in the area for two weeks, I didn't know this was down the street. The park itself is small, quaint even, but the informational plaques were helpful, if but a bit sad. There are photographs of what the area looked like (along with maps) when the battle took place. Now you look around and only see developments.

The pathway is decent and wheel chair accessible
