Hotel was seemed to have gone through a recent renovation as interior was new with classic touch. Main room was clean well maintained. Bathroom clean and well maintained with the exception of the shower as the grout and overall stall needed a more professional approach to the finishes. Hotel pool and spa utilized. The second morning went to spa it was over chlorinated as it immediately removed the color from my suit and my spouses.

I place a card for incidentals but at the pool you need your card to order anything, valet is a separate charge, room service app makes you think your being hacked. But the hotel, staff, and pool were great. I would go back again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room was large and comfortable, though slightly dated. Overall great stay my only complaint is the bathroom door, it's one of those that slides and doesn't fully close (barn door style but isn't connected all the way) so privacy is a bit of an issue if you're sharing a room. Walking distance to some items and overall safe-feeling. Would probably stay again!

The staff at the Renaissance are professional, efficient, and polite in everything they do. The hotel itself is kept impeccably clean, and my room was no exception.
