Great stay!!! Rooms were clean. Also so great there were a few rooms to do work. One thing to note if you come in late- it IS the bldg that says Charles Knight- there is a small sign that gives a number to call for after hours. We were definitely wandering since it was our first time staying and it does not give the “hotel’ feel. Anyway so glad we stayed and look forward to coming again.
