Water is very, very hot. Do be careful when adjusting water temperature. Distance is walkable to University of Notre Dame, but in nice weather. If inclement weather (cold), best to drive over. Very nice touch with cookies & iced tea in the afternoon, found in the lobby. Overall, a very nice stay!!

Good but not great
I’d really like to give a great review but there were some issues. It was clean and the breakfast was decent. In other reviews I saw complaints about road noise. Our room was right by the road and it was not a problem. My biggest issue was our room was never made up once! We had to go every day and ask for clean towels. Our trash was overflowing because it was never emptied. I’m not into new sheets everyday but at least come in and empty my trash once a day! My other complaint would be it is in definite need of updating. Little things like the crazy slow elevator would have made a huge difference

The PICTURES were so misleading. It showed pictures of a breakfast buffet with hot food, it was a basket of oatmeal packets & rotten fruit. There was no hot food. We checked in and was told we were on the 3rd floor....and oh by the way the elevator doesn't work. Horrible. Would not recommend

I apologize for any inconvenience you experienced during your stay at the hotel.
