The staff was really helpful and accommodating. Customer service is a high priority for the hotel. The facilities were well maintained and nicely decorated. The daily $ 55.00 parking charge was rather expensive though. The hot tub was luke warm at best. It needed to be hotter.

My favorite thing about this property was our room had personality. It was a white on white sterile room. The furniture was eclectic and comfortable there was color and personality, like you were staying with friends instead of in a hotel. The bathroom was roomy and had TWO lighted mirrors.
