Overall this was a great experience. Everyone who worked at the hotel that I encountered was nice and friendly. The hotel is a bit dated, but they are in the process of updating. The room was large and had a decent size mini fridge, K-cup coffee maker and a microwave. The workout room was on the small size. The pool is located on the 3rd floor and there were plenty of chairs/tables on the deck area. I would have liked to see a few more loungers. The hotel is in the University area. There is a Publix, Target within a block or two, there are tons of restaurants and bars too. I would definitely stay here again. If you are coming for Fest it is about 1 mile walk down to most of the venues.
