The staff was very helpful from the front desk to the valet service. The hallway on the floor we stayed on, smelled like fresh piant, which I believe was due to remodeling of the facility. Otherwise for a weekday getaway it was pleasent.

We had a great stay at this hotel; location was great as were the hotel amenities - the pool, the restaurants, etc. All the staff were friendly and helpful, but Sean at the front desk was absolutely fantastic! One complaint was that the valet service is overpriced and there was a bit of misinformation on pricing itself, what the correct rate was and how much time was included. All said, we will be back!

From the moment we arrived, we felt relaxed! I don't know how to explain it, but it even SMELLS like vacation! The front desk staff was friendly, hooking my 9 year old up with some AP swag and getting us off tomorrow room quickly. Speaking of rooms, ours was HUGE! The bed was a bit on the firm side, but I don't mind that at all. Overall the grounds were impressive. The little cafe downstairs has great coffee, the pool area is so cute with its little cabanas. We had a fantastic stay and will absolutely go back!
