While not super close to on-campus activities, it’s a lovely location with beautiful views. The pool looks like a great spot for summer. However, the hotel itself is quite dated inside. The beds are uncomfortable and in need of an upgrade, but the biggest problem was how thin the walls were. Even minor sounds from adjacent rooms like coughs, phone conversations, or wake up alarms sounded like they were in our bed. Hall and lobby noise also kept us awake. We also asked front desk staff for recommendations and guidance a couple times during our stay and they were either not knowledgeable about the area or just unhelpful, as they never seemed to have any ideas or answers.
