Staff was really attentive and helpful, we needed a lint roller and they brought up to the room within 5 minutes. we also had a hard time with the heat in the shower at first and they came up immediately, helped up and allowed us to have extended check out due to the situation. Mckenzie at the front desk was so kind and very helpful!
