Andrea checked us in. She was the most kind check in clerk I've ever met. She anticipated everything I was thinking, I'll give the hotel a 5 start rating just because of her hospitality. However the hotel was great all around. Breakfast was amazing! The indoor pool and hot tub were also great to relax in.
