Room is spacious and bed was very comfortable. Felt safe walking around the property. At check in, the front desk clerk took a phone call while getting us checked in. He was having 2 conversations at the same time, so I wasn’t sure who he was talking to when asking questions. He should have put the call on hold, got us checked in and then go back to the call. But the room and the area outshined that first experience. And the breakfast is good! Loved the fresh ground coffee bean decaf. That’s a nice high end touch.
