Nice, quiet hotel for a short visit.

Good one night stay for a trip to the Aiken Steeplechase. Room was large. Bed was comfortable. Hotel was quiet. Property grounds nice. Front desk made sure to walk me through the process for late check-in, so I had no issue on arrival. Would stay again.

We loved the quiet and peaceful setting. Rooms were clean and well kept. Staff was very professional and friendly. View from our room onto the golf course was relaxing. Only drawback was the continental breakfast. For the money, a few more selections would be nice. What was served was very good though.
