Staff was ok, I didn't feel welcomed unfortunately. When i got there i was ignored by the check in woman. She was too busy talking to her associate to even greet me, even though she saw me right away. I waited while they just talked, i wasn't helped until someone else got in line. So i was disappointed, the room was very nice with a great view. TV only had about 10 channels which was weird. Besides that, the beds were very comfortable. Even though the room was beautiful im not sure if I'd stay here again since i didn't feel welcomed to begin with. The diner there okay..My husband and daughter liked their meal. Mine was ok....i was disappointed because the food was room temp. I was expecting a hot breakfast.

The staff was great but the room didn’t have a smart tv, the water pressure sucked, the curtains only closed 99% of the way allowing light to get in, & the outlets were loose causing the phone charger to fall out.
