Room was nice and clean. Staff was very friendly. Lobby area was busy, but noise don’t carry over to rooms. The only negative was the fitness center, the cardio equipment was run down/broken.

The room was clean, breakfast was nice a little bit of everything. I wish they would include the daily resort fee and the daily parking fees in the price, already.
