Overall, good stay. Easy check in and check out process. I liked that check out time of 12 pm. Feels less of a rushed process to check out, and we were able to sit and enjoy complimentary breakfast before final checkout. Ease with requesting car from valet. Good interaction with staff. Place was clean, housekeeping was excellent, and good breakfast options.
