Such a nice unique property close to the Haymarket Area of downtown Lincoln. The staff was incredibly friendly and the room was very nice. Love the ambiance of the lobby and bar, plus the decor was very nice. Can't stress enough how great the staff was. My wife wasn't feeling well the next morning and I requested a later check out. They accommodated and asked if they could take her anything, like crackers or sprite. Definitely above and beyond.

Pretty sweet property. The people who work here are pretty nice. Only two weird occurrences there was a weird smell and the elevator wasn’t working for a minute but by the time we came back to the hotel they fixed both things. Love that you can walk to a lot of places.
