I had a great stay at the hotel. The room, although facing the main street, was surprisingly quiet and very clean, providing me with the best night's sleep I've had in ages. The staff were all friendly and efficient, except for a slight unhelpfulness. The location was perfect for my visit to the Lincoln Aviation Heritage Centre, offering a contemporary and relaxing atmosphere. The dining experience was a bit of a letdown in terms of taste, but the cooked-to-order options were satisfactory. Overall, a slightly overpriced but decent choice for a stay.
