The room was clean but you would clearly see areas where they had some sort of water damage that was patched up. The room was okay, we mostly enjoyed the breakfast and amenities like the spa. It’s divided into two “separate” areas- suites vs spa. The pool and hot tub were across the parking lot which was odd. Overall it was nice. I’ve stayed in better rooms but still nice.
