I had a wonderful time at the hotel. It was conveniently located close to everything we love to do, but the area felt a bit gloomy at night. The service was top-notch with great professional staff greeting me warmly. The dining experience was excellent with included crisp salads. The rooms were comfortable and had a Keurig setup, though having 2 beds was a plus. The facilities were impressive, offering various services to make the stay more convenient.
