We walked to the historic district even though it’s 35 minutes away. It was great weather and we discovered lots of places along the way. The hotel itself was immaculate and has such great staff that are so very helpful. The pool is small but nice for a few laps to cool off.

Parking was limited and taped off,,, construction tape all along the front of the entrance made us hesitant about where to enter and park.
