Brand new hotel, still partly under construction. Despite that, the staff were amazing. My room was immaculate, the associates at the front desk were really nice and helpful.

Staff was welcoming except the breakfast area. Check in was a breeze. Room was good with a street view. Hotel is under construction so there is a lot of construction noise just be aware of that. The worst thing was the breakfast. We showed up at 8 AM and almost everything was empty. Only 3-4 other families were there at that time so definitely was not busy. Bacon, gravy for biscuits was never filled. There was no fresh fruit available, boiled eggs were over. Nuts and toppings for oatmeal was over. When we politely asked the staff member they (one lady in particular) were extremely rude. We sat around for 40 min and still stuff mentioned above was not refilled. The pancake machine was out of order. So the place that is supposed to serve hot breakfast only had eggs and biscuits. All-in-all with loud construction noise, fire alarm went off once for no reason, and the breakfast debacle this stay was not pleasent especially for the price you pay. It was- Pay for a hotel but stay in a motel!!
cereal toppings were never filled.
Don't even know what was supposed to be here for hot breakfast. Was never filled.
Gravy never showed up and got a rude reply -"have some patience" when we asked after 40 min of waiting.

Our stay was great the only thing was we had a corner room by a door and people kept coming in and out and the door would slam everytime, also an hour before check out the maid came by knocked once we didn't even get a change to get to the door and she was coming in to our room. I really did not appreciate that at all. Before I forget we stayed there two nights and I did ask front desk for more towels, this was earlier in the morning then about noon or so I had to ask again and a gentleman vacuuming brought them right over.

We picked this place because of the pool and it wasn’t open. Otherwise, one of the best breakfasts that I’ve had at a hotel. Super nice staff and clean rooms.
