Nice but can end up being pricey.

Stayed one night for concert in area. Hotel was clean, people friendly and helpful. Bed was on the hard side. Nespresso was a nice touch, but would have preferred a keurig type machine that would fill a cup. The $30.00 "comp" should only be charged *IF* you drink alcohol, not quite fair to those of us that don't.
