This was probably the nicest room i've stayed in. they keep everything very clean! the entertainment is very lacking and seems to be a place for older people that go to sleep early. not much happening in the evenings. the specialty restaurants were not good. the best food was pepe's grill, and the regular buffet. but beautiful views and only a 5 min ride from downtown shopping. convenient location and seems very safe with security. all the employees were very friendly and got us anything we needed.
