Nice facility, someone enter room while I was out.

The only issue I have with the stay is that while I was out of the room for business, someone entered the room. I didn't have anything of value left in the room but clothes, since I have been traveling for business for years. All it looked like they did was reset the room. The window shade was moved and tv was turned off. But when they entered and saw my bag they should have left the room.

Would st

Check in was efficient and friendly. Shower did not get hot enough or stay hot. Not enough towels. Front desk promptly gave us extra. I did not complain though. Clean, comfortable beds. Besides shower-stay was wonderful.
