    my room my breakfast I feel they went out of their way to help and they had someone to take my luggage up to my room and the days before I left asked for someone to take down but they already arranged it

    Convenient and within walking distance to the city and Apex. Comfortable bed. Nice shower. The brewery aspect attracted me to it, as it was a bit quirky. Parking was fine in the end, staff were helpful.
