Not happy that the closest dozen parking spots are for premium club members only, leaving the rest of your paying customers to park in the far reaches of the lot...all those spaces were empty all night

The hotel was very pretty, with outdoor seating with nice landscaping. The room was great as were the staff. The breakfast was fabulous, especially the bacon. The only complaint I have is small but I think woth mentioning. The selection of hot tea was very poor. Many of the other chains have great varieties.

We went in the off season and there wasnt much around open for food options. No fault of the hotel i just wouldve likw to know that prior to arriving.
