Annoying that they charge $50 for early check in and $30 per day in resort fees. There are no resort features. They give you a food credit but the restaurant was terrible.

I am providing two stars simply because of the front desk staff they were friendly and courteous, especially the individual who checked us. But let me detail as to why only two stars: Restaurant: our first terrible interaction was with a retiring staff( Hispanic woman with blond hair). She was dismissive and cold when I wanted to order to go as we waited for our rooms. It was as if I was a bother to her because I was not sitting at the bar and opening a tab. Our second interaction with another retiring staff was more pleasant (dark hair woman worked Saturday night) she noticed I had my son with me and came around the bar and brought our food. She was super kind. Third interaction was with the Hispanic woman again and this time was worse. She was not kind to a food runner who brought a burger to her customer that had fries instead of chips . It was her fault because she is the one who obviously rung up the order. When I noticed we waited a while I walked over to the bar to check and our bag was just sitting there as she twirled her hair while smiling and talking to a customer. But I didn’t get a smile. Our food was sitting there for quite some time because I passed by several times and saw the bag but because she never motioned to me I assumed it was not ours. Mind you we were the only ones sitting to the left in the lobby where she can see us. Overall the food was not that great. Especially our final Night the brown rice was bad smelled as if it was spoiled.

The room was a nice size and very clean to accommodate my wife’s handicap. I found the staff to be quite friendly. Not a single staff member past you by without a smile and hello. The valet staff was very helpful with helping me load, unload, and getting our things to the room. I can close by saying this, I’ve been a flight attendant for over 20 years now and have stayed in many hotels across the country, this hotel beats them all for nice rooms and friendly, helpful, courteous staff. And the hotel smelled great too! Would highly recommend to others.
As you can see from all these pics, the view from our room was fabulous!
