This hotel was clean and quiet. The bedding was comfortable and the shower was large and nice. There were 2 sink areas for getting ready and also a cabinet and counter where the coffee maker was. There was also a towel warmer, a very nice perk! We stayed for a college visit but I would definitely consider staying here if we're in the area whether or not our son chooses ONU.

This is a very nice hotel. The layout of the room is nice (two sinks, one outside the bathroom and a separate counter for coffee/tea). It also has good amenities such as a mini-fridge. However, one of my favorite things about this hotel is the bathroom. It has a towel warmer and a dual shower head (you can switch back and forth from rain to massage head). My only complaint is that they could do better with the continental breakfast. It is pretty small. Finally, this is obviously a great place to stay if you are doing anything at ONU (as it is on the campus).

Very clean and comfortable room. Took breakfast with me before 6:30: packaged hard-boiled eggs, yogurt, hot tea. Bagels, toast, and cereal also available. Helpful staff, beautifully decorated lobby with fireplace. Will stay again! So convenient for shows at Freed Center.
