Had a wonderful stay at The Place over the weekend and would come back again in a heartbeat. Rooms were comfortable and quiet throughout day and night.

The employees were always very kind and ready to help with whatever I needed. Thanks so much for such a great stay!

The staff were friendly and really helpful, even assisting with my luggage both during check-i...
