The Ridley is in a good location for access to all areas. We parked our car in a nearby parking lot for the 3 days we were there & walked everywhere. The best part about the Ridley was breakfast! Great options & the cook was a sweetheart. The room was okay but it needs attention. Both in upkeep & cleaning. The bathroom floors need a thorough bleaching! It was an okay stay. Probably would make accommodations elsewhere were we to return.
