While our suite was wonderful (loved the fireplace!) There was very little soundproofing so we heard everything said and done in the hallway. Check-in was a challenge because internet problems kept the staff from sending room combinations in advance as advertised. Instead, we arrived at 5pm and had to wait 10-15 minutes for a staff member to arrive and check us in manually.

We were going to Longwood Gardens which was 4 miles south of the property.The hotel was clean. There was a staff member at the desk. We only stayed for 2 nights. Put the maid service sign out on 2nd day. It was a no show. The continental breakfeast was good. There were 3 excellent restaurants nearby. They have this digital key system with room of which they text and email your code the day before your stay. The code showed me checked out the second day. Fortunately the desk clerk gave me a card at check in. I would stay there again. Communication between the staff and guests could have been better.
