Overall, a really solid stay! The hotel was clean, the staff was friendly and helpful, and the room layout was actually well thought out — the couch setup made it feel a little less like “just another hotel room” and more comfortable for relaxing. Only two complaints: the indoor pool must’ve been filled directly from an iceberg in Alaska, and the body wash container in the shower was emptier than my wallet after vacation. 😂 Other than that, great experience and I’d definitely stay again!
