We picked the Ryder on a whim without knowing too much about it. What a great choice! It is centrally located, can basically walk everywhere, very clean and good pool area and bars. All the staff was very nice and they were very accommodating when we asked to change a room to closer to elevator because I had a broken foot and had difficulty walking. We would definately stay there again.

Not a good experience, no cold water, no hot water. Just like warm. Safes in the room broken. Switched rooms that was broken also. Nice maintenance men fixed them. A lot of money for room I couldn’t shower in. Very disappointed.
