Friendly staff all around...breakfast lady was very attentive and proud of the morning offerings..deservedly so. The sausage gravy and biscuits on Sunday was a pleasant surprise. If visiting your kid at OU, it's about a 45 minute walk to Court St. However, if treating your kid to lunch/dinner, everything is nearby this hotel.

Very friendly front desk!
I was coming into town to visit my daughter at school. I was coming in prior to check in and called to see if they might have a room available early. The receptionist was very friendly and said she would hold me the first one ready. When I arrived 30 mins later it was available and ready for me to check in.

Good location
This hotel was located near where I needed to be and that’s why we choose it. The room had a smell of wet dog but not bad. The bed was comfy and clean. All in all I enjoyed my stay. Loved the 12:00 check out.
