I was disappointed in the Streaming options. There were no options to pay for a movie without signing up for an account on Hulu. Then when we went to Netflix there were profiles from previous guests. I didn’t remember our password so I had to use their profiles. Also, I don’t drink coffee. It would have been nice if they had tea as well as complimentary coffee in the morning. Otherwise everything and all the employees were wonderful.

Just okay

Just okay. For the price would have expected a little more. No perks, even asking for a little later check out - would have expected more as a loyal hotel.com member for many years.
