Great hotel
I was overall really happy with my stay. My only complaint is that my window let in tons of light from the street lamps outside.

Comfortable stay
It is always a comfortable stay, cleanliness, friendly staff, and the wonderful fresh fruit for breakfast.
We always stay here on our way to Indiana.
Never disappoints.

I enjoyed this hotel largely because of the decor which was distillery focused. Unlike so many of the chain hotels, the decor represented the location.
Also, breakfast was exceptional.

Overall good stay
Overall good stay. Rooms were clean. Towels could use an update (several were stained with make-up (hopefully?)). Bar staff is the front desk person at that time, and they’re attentive enough to work both. No elevator, which isn’t a big deal for us. Would stay again.

The staff was very friendly an welcoming. A cute and clean hotel. The breakfast was ok but I have a couple of suggestions. At breakfst time, you should have a bigger coffee urn. The fancy machine was nice but there was always a line to get coffee in the morning. It would also be nice if you offered a few gluten free items. Serveral other hotels offer instant grits, gf cereal, or udis gf blueberry muffins.
