Check-in was great; however, the room could use some upgrades. The TV could not connect to any devices for streaming, the shower pressure was low, and the toilet required multiple flushes to fully clear. That said, I would like to highlight the excellent customer service provided by the valet team and the front desk staff.

It was very nice and clean hotel with good breakfast. The staff were friendly and helpful. I enjoyed my room that had sink, fridge, microwave, plates, silverware, bottle opener. There is also a laundry in building. I didn’t need these amenities but it’s nice to know that they have them. It’s also walking distance to activities and restaurants. Excellent deal and location.
