Weekend visit to OU

The location is perfect for visiting OU and I love having the restaurant and bar on site. The rooms are clean but I find the beds to be quite hard and uncomfortable. We were there for 2 nights and didn't have hot water for showers either morning.

The fire pit area outside is enjoyable. It's not walkable surrounding the area; a shuttle service to OU would be appreciated but they noted a city bus stop is across from the property.
