The Albion is a walk through history. The building is incredible with architectural features, lobby restaurant, and really nice modern updates. It's a few blocks to downtown Summit and all of the restaurants and shopping. The staff were off the charts friendly and helpful. The cigar bar was a great touch as well.

A nice, old hotel that has been graced with recent renovations of public areas and maybe the rooms. "Free Breakfast" is abysmal, but coffee and tea are always available.
