10. I think folks should know a few things - The hotel was warm, friendly, clean and trendyRe: The Restaurent :If you want to try the tasting menu on a Saturday evening at the Smyth you will need at least 2 people to order the tasting menu (on a less busy night this may not be the case) and on a Sunday the full brunch is not available until after 11am - Servers were very helpful and friendly - The manager explained why a 1 person tasting menu order was not possible on a very busy nightI recommend booking a motorcycle rental in advance - I called on a friday for saturday and there were no bikes available from eaglerider - i should have planned better but i was trying to watch the weatherI found the hotel staff to be friendly and helpful - they offered suggestions when we asked what we could walk to - The 3rd ward was nearby - and The Harley Museum is across the bridge - We enjoyed both.
