The staff was incredibly friendly. The suite with the jetted tub was bigger and lovelier than I expected. My husband and I both fit in the tub, though it was not long enough for either of us to stretch our legs out (bathing separately). It was wide and deep and comfy. The breakfast seemed downgraded, but not bad. The 24 hour coffee station had a nice selection. Altogether, it was an amazing value.
