"The Graduate is fortunate that they have a fantastic location, because the hotel itself is run down and badly needs a renovation. The lobby and rooms badly need to be upgraded, and I imagine the owners could then get top dollar."

"only stayed 1 night (Monday). Hotel is very central and walkable to the center of town, restaurants, bars, etc. garage parking was easy and reasonable. We found Coopers bar to be the best for beers and watching the game. Town was very quiet but that’s most likely due to school not in session."
