wonderful hotel experience!
full restaurantkeurig coffeeprofessional front deskcold coffee
I enjoyed having a full-service restaurant right there. It made things easy. the keurig coffee maker, microwave, and mini-fridge were useful. I kept snacks and water handy. i also appreciated the upgrade to a king room. The front desk was informative and professional, and it really set the tone for my stay.
the coffee at reception was cold! i usually grab a cup in the mornings, and it wasn't very good.

The hotel offers a washing machine on site, so handy for longer stays! guests can also unwind in the hot tub or take a refreshing dip in the pool. I noticed they were very clean, that's important.

helpful staffoutdated roomnoisy air conditioning
The staff seemed really helpful, I will give them that.
The room felt really outdated. I noticed hardly any power sockets for charging my devices, it was inconvenient. The air conditioning made so much noise, it was hard to sleep well. The room size was fine, but the lack of updates bothered me.

I appreciated the friendly and helpful staff. My room was very comfortable and I found it to be very quiet. I got upgraded to a kitchenette, and the size of the room was excellent. It had everything I needed. There was free parking available, rare.
I noticed the fitness room doesn't open until 9 a.m.. It is useless for people needing to work out earlier.
