The location is great, just out of the way enough but right on the Riverwalk, making it a short, easy, and beautiful walk to downtown, plus if your up for a longer walk you can hit up local museums all from the Riverwalk. And if you would rather drive the parking is great and there is plenty of it.

It was absolutely perfect. My daughter and granddaughter were here for my niece’s graduation from Ft Benning. We were in awe as to how beautiful and clean everything was. Everything was top notch. You’d never believe this was a 1900s structure. The front desk was very helpful. Helped us find restaurants etc. check in and out was a breeze. The place was very secure. Even the elevator. The restaurant was very nice. Great choice of drinks and food. We highly recommend
