The manager graciously assisted in correcting errors in my reservation through Hotels.com. The room I landed with was a beautiful 2 bedroom full suite with a well appointed kitchen and 2 bedrooms. For the price, it was pure luxury when attending a conference and room sharing. The breakfasts offered in the morning were hot, fresh and delicious, not your usual stale reworked pastry and fruit offerings. I will absolutely refer friends and family to this hotel. The staff was accommodating and kind. Not everyone has forgotten the value of excellent customer service!
