Staff was the best, got to check in early for free… My stay was a 10/10 I will be returning in a couple months! Only thing I will say is that it’s a $100 incidental fee for every night you stay… I think that’s really high but you get to use it for room service and stuff… pool and spa 10/10 the gym had so many things everything was just perfect! Highly recommend staying there

A little construction

I think hotels should be required to tell their guest that there is construction. We heard it starting at 8:30am and we were so exhausted and heard it all morning. The bed was so comfortable
