The most comfortable bed I’ve slept in so far on our drive across the country. Soft sheets, nice big towels, we loved the large pool and area. The lemon water and cookies in the foyer were such a nice touch and the breakfast and large eating area were lovely. Great location too close to good restaurants and shops. I’d stay here again for sure.

The rooms were clean but a little dated. Microwave and refrigerator added after room design so were just randomly along the wall. Not a big fan of the sink outside the bathroom either. Bed was comfortable. Temp easy to control. Staff was very helpful and breakfast was the standard hotel buffet. Keeping it hot is the key and they did a good job. Would stay again.

Somehow my Expedia profile must indicate that we need an ADA room which we do not. The bathroom was awful. Water from the shower ran out on to the floor, making a terrible slipping hazard! The laundry facilities were not working. The bed was comfortable and we did not hear road or other guest noise.
