Wonderful and relaxing
I took a trip with my daughter to do a girls shopping trip for 2 days. We made a small request to be put in a certain room which was effortlessly granted. Tony at the registration desk was extra helpful. It was a wonderful stay and we were comfortable. We took advantage of the hot tub, pool, and the grab and go breakfast. Everyone who we came in contact was very professional and courteous. Some things to note: the garage is tight getting out of so be careful. Parking is $10 a night. There's infused water in the lobby. Each room comes with a refillable water bottle which is a nice touch. The beds were very comfortable; best sleep I've had in months. There's a lavender infused oil to rub on that's part of their good sleep concept. Nice toiletries and bath robes. Towels are extra plush. There's a $23 buffet breakfast or a grab and go option, which we did. The quiche and breakfast sandwich plus a tip came to $30. They allowed me to refill my coffee with the Starbucks they offered. Location of hotel is easy to find; when you arrive, just head right into the underground parking structure as there is an elevator that takes you directly to the lobby to check in.
