This hotel is wonderful! The staff were so friendly and helpful, and the amenities were outstanding. The location was fantastic. The only thing that was a bummer was that the hotel was being renovated and certain restaurants and parts of the hotel weren’t open. But I still highly recommend this wonderful hotel.
