My friends and I stayed here for our annual girls trip and The Alest Hotel was the right choice. They were so thoughtful (extra water bottles and toiletries) and kind. Truly a great experience. Quiet, great area to walk around and lots of dining options close. Great breakfast included with our stay. Would highly recommend.
