Breakfast service staff (Sarah) were very friendly! It was very clean and comfortable. Shower pressure/soft water wasn’t our favorite but it was still worth it. Also, you have to double check/ pull your room door to make sure it is actually closed. Accidentally left our room door open without realizing it because it didn’t latch all the way. Still happy with everything overall!

Property was wonderful. I did not get the room I paid for. I paid for a king suite. I got a double queen standard. The room was clean and well taken care of. Just not what I paid for.
