Our favorite place to stay when we visit our college kids because of its walkable location to campus and the campus town area. We like the building history, the hot breakfast made to order, the friendly staff, and the clean and relaxed atmosphere.

Great stay in an well-maintained historic ex-fraternity house! The fresh-made breakfasts were way better than we expected. And the location so close to campus couldn't be beat....just a quick walk to everything!
