Great get away!
We went for the July 4 holiday. Very fun. Hotel is a short walk to anywhere! It’s very quiet. Bed was comfy… though I reserved a queen bed and our room had a double bed. That was the only downside.

I'm going across the street next time...
Kind of difficult to leave this place daily and see the modern Atwater across the street.
The toilet continually ran, there was hair in the drain from the last occupants (we never saw housekeeping come to our room in the two days we were there, despite alerting the staff) and the place is very run down. Bed not comfortable, both of us had back issues each morning.
The staff is great. The two older gentlemen give all kinds of recommendations for what to do and where to eat. They were the best part of the stay.
The Continental breakfast is orange juice (which was quite good) dry bagels (pass) and blueberry muffins from a box mix (actually quite good).
