3.0 star rating
  Update - 6/22/2011

This place is quite par.  That's it.  Nothing memorable.  The prices are actually quite good for the amounts that they give you for the food.

The BLT was quite good, albeit a bit heavy on the mayo.  Ask for it on the side.  The potato soup was decent…More »

    A typical restaurant bar, but with a caveat - it caters to those that love tv.  There are cushy… Read more »

A regular fan of the Noodle Gourmet.  Wide selection of Chinese food available here.  Although there is a wide selection, I always only get 1 of 2 things - the wonton noodle with a meat or the combination on rice.

Not sure where the gourmet comes in…More »

4.0 star rating
  5/8/2010

I think this is probably the best place that incorporates college student life and adult parent life.  I hope that is a good description (which, it probably isn't).  

The ambiance here is great - it feels like you're in a living room about to enjoy a…More »

2.0 star rating
  9/30/2010 First to Review

You know what you're going to get at Applebees, so this isn't a review based on the food.  

1/2 price appetizers after 10pm - great for the wallet, not so good on your stomach (1/2 price?  Sure, I'll get 2 appetizers! ughhh).  I'd give this place 3…More »

    Maybe I'm old and ancient.  Maybe I'm past my time or something.

For being a brand spankin new hotel, it felt older than many of the hotels I stay at.  TV was tube.  Only 2 pillows per bed.  Bath towels felt like those you buy 10 for a dollar.

Great location though.  Shame the bar/restaurant close quite early.  I'd…More »
