10/10 Excellent
"We got into town around 9pm, and left the next morning to head into the park, so we were not able to take advantage of the amenities, but everything we saw and experienced during our short stay was very nice. The hotel is convenient. We walked straight into town to grab a late dinner. The hotel was very clean and the staff were friendly. On-site parking was readily available. In addition to their rooftop restaurant, they have a Starbucks within the hotel lobby. The rooms were nice and clean."
