Hotel was good. Very quiet - probably wasn’t full, but I heard zero noise - no doors, elevators, hall noises, etc., so that was nice. Wasn’t impressed with the area of the hotel, but it was significantly cheaper than the more down town options. Still quick and easy to campus. Plus, Andy’s Frozen Custard is right next door, if you want a snack!
