"We went for a last minute trip. We have stayed at this hotel a few times and absolutely love it. The front staff is helpful. The rooms are clean and comfortable. They have a place for you to fill your water bottles and get delicious coffee. There are plenty of places near the hotel to eat. There is a restaurant in the hotel, but I don’t prefer it. The service is sub par and the meal is not as exquisite as what you can find around the hotel. There is valet parking and the team out there has always been amazing.All in all, great place to stay. Oh, and your fur baby is welcome."
