The view. Was beautiful! The balcony with rockers made us feel comfortable and relaxed. Our room was very clean. We loved having 2 chairs inside as opposed to one desk chair. Nice dog area. Bird feeder was fun. We watched birds with binoculars.

We had our service dog with us. Placed in room on 2d level. Parking was directly in front of room. Room was VERY musty. Turned on AC and opened the patio door to air our the room. Light switches were all sticky. Had to wakk diwn to front ofc fir ice and vending. Coffe maker in room had weak brand of coffee. Water pressure and temp control was fine. Continental brkfst offerings (no protein options) had been picked thru by 855am. Fresh fruit was only 2 green bananas. Best part was the absolutely stunning vie from our bakcony. Save for the view, this was a disappointing hotel.
