The only place you need to stay in Ada. Live music the night we arrived was a plus. We were rushed the morning we stayed and couldn’t find the breakfast, but it had to be there somewhere.

Second time staying here and won’t be our last. Cute property, clean and nice room. Could use a better in room coffee maker and the continental breakfast was just coffee and a few individually wrapped bagels/muffins- some room for improvement. Can’t get any more convenient to campus though, which is why we come to town.
