This is our third time staying at Homewood Suites by Hilton at this location. We choose this place because of its convenience to downtown. The rooms are always spotless, and clean. There is coffee brew all day complimentary in the lobby, and a breakfast buffet in the mornings. :) We look forward to coming back again soon.

Location was a pretty easy walk to campus and restaurants. Suite was large and comfortable. Kids loved the game room with pool table, shuffle board, and board games. Parents loved the bar. Gym had plenty of options. Breakfast was better than usual for this level of hotel. Check-in was a bit slow, but the staff were very friendly and helpful.
