Enjoyed the property very much. Desk staff always helpful. Dining room servers were pleasant and accommodating. Housekeeping was thorough and unobtrusive. Street balcony’s are recommended, beautiful canopy of trees. Bed was firm but somehow very comfortable. Pillows high quality. Decent size fridge in the upgraded room we had. Public areas pretty spotless. Minor ding is the early close of the pool 5pm. Kind of a drag that it is so early. The breakfast and the afternoon happy hour food was wonderful. Plan your day right and you could have two decent meals at the hotel free. Will stay here again for sure.
