We loved the room at The Benjamin. The room, itself, was huge, and the bathroom was the largest I've seen anywhere I've stayed. Double sinks and a bathtub in addition to a large shower.

Vey charming hotel in the heart of town. Most restaurants are in walking distance, and so is the lake. The rooms are big and very well equipped. The bed was very comfortable. You access the hotel, and the room, with a personalized code, which allows you to be completely free. I would recommend this hotel in a heartbeat and would go there again.

This is the swankiest hotel I have stayed at for the price. I stayed in off-season. The bed was comfortable, the location is walkable, off street parking, the shower was excellent, good temperature control, and staff accessible via phone. Only negative is no elevator. Had to haul my luggage up a large staircase.
