Great service and location.
Great location. Love the Ruths Chris and Caroll's Corn right inside the hotel. The rooms are older (some have been renovated). The air conditioning was loud, but the staff and service were great. Happy Hour and fresh lemon and lime water in the lobby were also a nice touch.

It’s an older hotel with both all the charm and age that implies. It was tough to get a consistent water temperature for the shower, for example.

I guess he was having a bad morning. He decided to yell and cuss and call me names. I was waiting for a car to back out of a parking space. He could not see the car from where he was standing. He wanted me to move and turn left, but I did not move until the other person had all the space they needed. The whole time he is screaming at me. NOT COOL He was only walking over to the elevator. Sorry he was having a bad day. Next time just take a breath. We enjoy Kahler Grant and have stayed here A LOT. Thank you too everybody else that keeps this hotel running.
