Top Downtown Arts Center Hotel Reviews

Elwood Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"It was a beautiful hotel & room right in town. Loved our king room so much. The staff was amazing & so friendly. The breakfast was very good. The only issue is the parking. You can park on the street where there’s no open spaces or valet park. So you have to valet park. Daily charge to park plus tipping your valet. They also don’t tell you that up front."
