The room was nice. Remember to pick your cell phone cords up off the floor before house keeping comes in or they will destroy them in the vacuum. Other than that the stay was very pleasant.

What a gem! We liked the fact you didn’t feel like you were stomping down the hallway. In the room, you couldn’t hear your neighbors. The room was spacious and clean. Food and drinks were delicious. Staff was very nice.
