This hotel is nice! It was nice that the rooms are on one side and the restaurant is on the other. Beautiful lobby and entryway. There was a fire going in the lobby when we arrived which made it feel cozy. The beds were soft which made for a great nights sleep! We definitely would stay here again! We stayed here to go to The Caverns for an event so it was ideal location.
