Booking this stay was the best decision I've made all week. My King Room was clean, had a great bed, and was an all-around perfect setup. The property is also REALLY close to a bunch of great restaurants and amenities, so if you don't want to drive more than 10 or 25 minutes for a treat, then you're in the right place. This will be be my new go-to hotel from now on, when my travel brings me to the area. 10/10 I highly recommend the Chauncey!!
