Everything was great! Breakfast as well. The Buffalo Wild Wings in the same parking lot is a nice bonus, no driving necessary.

It was recommended by other reviewers to stay in a corner room. Ours overlooked park lake, fire stairs on one side, the parking lot and neighborhood the other window. It was quiet. The tv was huge and blocked half the window on the lake side lol. The room was clean and had nice old touches to the room with bold wallpaper. Bed was good, firm and comfortable. We weren’t there much when the restaurant was open. We walked the two blocks to downtown. Very convenient. Parking at the hotel was easy (it’s November) with only maybe 15 cars in a nice large surface lot that can take high profile vehicles. We stayed in 501. We plan to stay here again in the off season but try a diff room for a diff view. Not sure the extra cost for a tv lake view was worth it lol
