Disliked: Cleanliness
Our room was dirty. The main light in one room didn't work so it was dark and hard to see. Our sinks were chunky in the drain holes and and the faucet. Broken glass in the dishwasher. I came with children who can get glasses, etc and toys wasn't safe. The bedding for the hideabed in the couch wasn't in the rooms. I had to call down, get clothes back on and make the bed late at night. Do better. You're a newer hotel and aren't cheap.

overbooked

We got this hotel on hotels.com but when we arrived she informed us they didn't have rooms for us and were overbooked. The gal at the hotel was extremely nice about it and did what she could ( contacting hotels.com to cancel our reservation.). My fingers are crossed we get our money back from Hotels.com as we weren't the one to cancel PLUS had to go out and find another hotel room for the night.
