The front desk man was very nice, and my first room smelled like natural gas and he believed me and gave me a new room. I appreciated that. He didn’t give me an attitude or anything. I don’t remember his name but please tell him thank you! I was already stressed out and he made my night better!

The room was clean and staff was really nice and welcoming. Complimentary snacks in the lobby. Pool looked nice if we'd had time to use it. Treadmill not functioning, not many breakfast options. We will stay there again and plan to eat/exercise elsewhere.

The hotel is beautiful. The room was lovely and clean, but the bed was rock hard. The breakfast hot foods were cold, and several people tried to find someone to fill the waffle batter, but no one was at the front desk for about an hour. I just left my key cards in the box after waiting. It really was a lovely place, though, and clean.
