I am a HI fan so any time I can choose them I do. As usual I was completely satisfied. First of all, my plane was delayed 4 hours and I called the front desk. She was beyond helpful and professional. She let me know that whenever I got there, my room would be waiting for me--that took a load off because I was definitely stressed out. I didn't arrive until 1:56, but staff was available and got me checked in with no issues. Bed was clean and soft as usual and I had no issues with any appliances. As usual, a pleasure.

Pool closed at 8:00 PM while it’s still light out. Pool was not very clean. Not many seating options in the dining area for people to eat. Lots of dogs barking at 9:30 at night. We called and it seemed to help. Front counter staff was not friendly at all. The location was nice. We most likely won’t stay here again.
