Close to conference center. Off the beaten path. Nothing fancy but rooms are clean and beds comfortable. Horton was the best price offered for valet parking too.

"Quaint but worn down."
Overall Score3.0/ 5
Liked the setup but things were worn out and bathroom had mold around the faucet, sink and shower. Perhaps coffee in the lobby? Having to leave the property for coffee was strange.
