"Really enjoyed my stay. The check-in process was a bit of a challenge. Used the kiosk which worked & gave me my keys, but there was no information about the hotel, property, or amenities given. Had to go down to front desk later that night as my phone was not operational in the room. Other than that, really beautiful facility with everything you need."

"The beds were very comfortable but the 2nd queen bed was close to the air unit and we got cold throughout the night when the ac cooled the room. The room and bathroom were clean. I missed having a coffee maker. We were on the 2nd floor and we could hear each step the guests above us made all night. The front desk was very helpful throughout our 2 night stay. The weekend rate was over priced."
