Brandon

Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Check-in was smooth and hotel is a great location. However, there was a lingering smell of smoke in the room and we came to find out the HVAC system has some quirks which often led to heat exceeding nearly 80 degrees. That said, the hotel did offer us an opportunity to speak to the front desk for a possibility of swapping rooms, which was appreciated.

The hotel had no hot water when we stayed at the end of December. The hotel could have emailed to inform guests but did not -- only telling guest upon check in. Compensation was just a waiver of the $28 resort fee. Will never stay at this hotel again.

All was "fine", nothing special. $400+/night seems like a lot to pay for a "fine" room. Several maintenance issues in the room, burned out lightbulbs not replaced' only a partial roll of toilet paper, no second roll; toilet paper roll holder at an angle. Front desk was cordial, helpful.
