10/10 Excellent
"We liked the airport transfer. The hotel was updated and located so close to the arena that we easily walked to the volleyball game. We enjoyed walking around the nearby arboretum. The food at the restaurants were good. The ice cream on campus was divine! Not much for food options in the evening so we took an uber downtown."

8/10 Good
"The hotel was very nice and the check-in was friendly, helpful and quick. The common areas were clean and lovely - the morning breakfast was outstanding. Best included breakfast I've ever had. The room was slightly lacking in that there were crumbs all over the couch and some on the floor, as well as a broken and hanging cabinet door covering the mini-fridge. We only had a half of a roll of toilet paper with no extra rolls available. I would stay here again, but I'd suggest that the room be a little more prepared for guests. Lastly, I wish that two full bottles of water were provided in the room."
