Clean, comfortable, safe stay

Checkin was easy. We paid for parking at the front desk. Rooms were clean and basic. Bathroom fan wasn’t able to keep up with typical shower moisture. Beds were very comfortable. We stayed in room 1516 with a view of the city over the pool. Our housekeeper Xion was fantastic. She was very attentive, helpful and kind. The breakfast buffet seemed a bit pricey but was very convenient. It had a lot of variety, was immaculate, and the servers were very attentive. The buffet food was a bit dried out but we arrived at 10:00 am which is 30 minutes from closing. Parking felt very secure and the security in the lobby made us feel safe.
