The room and the property was very nice! Parking was easy and the freeway is conveniently located close by. The staff was kind. I breakfast and coffee was simple but delicious. It appears they filled in the hot tub so i was disappointed about that. The wifi was fast and free. They offered upgraded wifi for video calls but i found that the free wifi was plenty fast for that. I got a balcony room and it was light, bright, and clean. Overall pretty perfect stay. My only complaint would be the elevators and elevator lobby are fairly run down and janky but the rest of the property is nice.

WiFi never worked even after trying to get the Conceirge to help she said she didn’t know how to get it to work, the coffee shop had such narrow hours? No restaurant, no jacuzzi, asked them to turn on fireplaces in living room area they said they didnt know how to lol. Seemed like not a single staff member worked there more than a day but the rooms were nice.
